2.1: Solving Equations Graphically Key Terms Solution is an equation of a number that produces a statement Zero is an input of where the graph function crosses the x-axis Intersection is where two graphs meet (DOES NOT HIT THE X-AXIS) 11/22/2018 7:11 PM 2.1: Solving Equations Graphically
2.1: Solving Equations Graphically Intersection Method Plug in the one side of the equation into Y1 and the other equation into Y2 = 0. Press [2nd], TRACE, [5] or INTERSECT. The calculator asks you 2 questions: FIRST CURVE and SECOND CURVE. Then it says, “GUESS”. Arrow to an answer you want then press [ENTER]. Write answer as a SOLUTION SET. Think of this: [2nd] [TRACE] [5] [ENTER] [ENTER] [ENTER] 11/22/2018 7:11 PM 2.1: Solving Equations Graphically
