Currently studying math, sorry if my english is bad.
I am Wu Zhong Lan.
I am 18 years old =)
I am puzzled with some questions.
Questions:
3 equations xy = 1 x^2 + y^2 = 1 x^2 + y^2 = 4
In surd form, show the 4 intersections of the last graphs with the first.
I am puzzled to where to start :S
Thank you =)
Well, an obvious start would be to draw the graphs since that is what is asked. Or you could solve as pairs of equations. The graphs ofand
intersect when both equations are satisfied. From xy= 1, y= 1/x so the second equation is
. Multiplying both sides of that by
gives
. Let
and that becomes
or
. Can you solve that quadratic equation?
The graphs ofintersect where both equations are satisfied. Do the same as above.
Ahhhh yes yes, I see. thank you a lot! =)
