Question

ALGEBRA 2.

Your favorite math magazine has recently published an article on their website about whether solving systems of non-linear equations is easier by graphing or algebraically.

You decide to write an email to the editor of the math magazine defending your opinion.

Your email must be two to four paragraphs in length.
You must express your opinion on which method is easiest.
Provide at least three pieces of supporting evidence.
Provide an additional graph of a system of non-linear equations that supports your viewpoint.

Answer 1

I will give you the facts -

-answers can be expressed in exact form, even one in decimal form, whereas with the graph, you can only tell the position when it is an exact integer value : accurate decimal answer
-on the other hand , graphs are fairly easy to plot, little algebra.
-however, it is difficult to draw a graph with more than two unknowns by hand.
-graphs are a disadvantage also in that the required solution might be way out of range of the graph, where scaling may result in an approximate answer, which may not be desirable
