SOL: Leads into AII.14 The student will solve nonlinear systems of equations, including linear­quadratic and quadratic­quadratic, algebraically and graphically. The graphing calculator will be used as a tool to visualize graphs and predict the number of solutions. Objective: Solve systems of linear equations by graphing. Determine whether a system of linear equations is consistent and independent, consistent and dependent, or inconsistent. (these are inconsistent systems) (these are consistent and dependent - they have consistent solutions that are dependent on each other) (these are consistent and independent ­ they have consistent solutions that only occur in one spot) 1 2 3 4 5
