What you'll learn

  1. Solve a system of one linear and one nonlinear equation by substitution, rearranging the linear equation first when necessary and reporting every solution as an ordered pair
  2. Relate the number of solutions — zero, one or two — to the intersection points of the two graphs, and identify the tangency case
  3. Determine the number of solutions by computing the discriminant of the substituted equation, without solving it
  4. Solve for an unknown coefficient given a stated number of intersection points
