SYSTEMS OF EQUATIONS Solving Graphically (Page 8 of 8)

Repeat this process to find the other x-intercept. We will use a left bound of 0.5, a right bound of 1.5, and a guess of 1. Then return to the Home screen to compute the y-coordinate.

 2nd CALC key. 2: menu selection. 0.5 ENTER key. 1.5 ENTER key. 1 ENTER key.

By pressing ENTER from the Home screen we repeat the last command and the current value of x (the other intercept) is used to evaluate Y1. Based on the results, the approximate solution set is {(-1.468, 1.156), (1.135, 0.288)}.
