Graphically determining the solution to a system of equations is a good visual method, but drawing graphs can take time, and usually the solutions are only approximations. Can a system of equations involving quadratics be solved algebraically using the same methods that worked for linear systems?



In Lesson 7.2, you will learn about

  • solving systems of equations by substitution,
  • solving systems of equations by elimination, and
  • using systems of equations to solve problems.
