Question

what is the maximum number of possible solutions for the system shown below 3x^2+y^2=64 x^2+y=5

Answer 1

There are infinite possible solutions. Solve for this gives you a hyperbola. Since a hyperbola's domain and range go to infinity, you cannot get a finite amount of solutions.

Answer 2

a. 4
b. 2
c. 1
d.3

Answer 3

Sorry my bad. I was thinking of something else. The answer should be 4. It is best if you convert this into a hyperbola and graph the solution out and find where your hyperbola intersects 5.
