Simultaneous Equations

The document contains two simultaneous equations problems. The first problem involves solving the linear equation y = x + 12 and the quadratic equation y = x^2 simultaneously to find the points of intersection of the two graphs. The second problem asks the reader to determine if the simultaneous equations 2x + y = 10 and y = 6 - 5x - x^2 have 0, 1, or 2 solutions by sketching the graphs.

2.8 Simultaneous equations


Objective
• Solve simultaneously one linear and one quadratic equation.

Key point 29
y
A linear graph and a quadratic graph can intersect at 0, 1 or 2 points. A
• Line 1 intersects the quadratic graph at points A and B. 2
B
• Line 2 is a tangent to the curve and just touches it at point C. 1
• Line 3 has no points of intersection with the quadratic graph. C

O x
3
Key point 30
Solving a linear equation and a quadratic equation simultaneously by an algebraic method will
give exact values for the coordinates of the points of intersection of the two graphs.

Key point 31
To solve a linear equation and a quadratic equation simultaneously, first rearrange the linear
equation to make x or y the subject and substitute into the quadratic equation. Then solve the
resulting quadratic equation by factorising, by using the quadratic formula or by completing the
square.
