Help WITH crazy math problem
^^^
I dont think you can solve for it manually because this is parabolas
No. You can, I was forced to learn this for conics in my Pre-Calc class.
oh ok I hate this stuff
I don't understand what is it asking for though. Is it asking for a set of points or an equation?
a set of points
okay
Sorry if I take awhile. It's been almost a year since I've had to do this lol.
Its okay
ok that was wrong start with \(y=1+4x\) and replace in first equation then solve \[1+4x=x^2+4\]
@satellite73 we did that together already.
I was looking for the next step in my old notes.
I am too
Okay so if you do that you'll factor it out to get the zeros which is (x-1)(x-3) which will look like: |dw:1341781736502:dw|
Sorry about it being so sloppy. I suck at drawing on here. But the points on the x access will be (1,0) and (3,0)
It should look like that ^^^^^
okay
So that gives you the \(x\)-values. Just plug those into \(y=x^2+4\) and \(y-4x=1\) to get the \(y\)-values.
Thank you for helping us. :D I was looking for that
You're welcome.
Thanks to the both of you, with your help I found the answer I needed
