Warm Up
Access the Desmos guide PDF for tips on solving problems with the Desmos graphing calculator.
Consider two equations in a system:
Use the graphing tool or technology outside the course. Graph the system of equations using the Desmos tool below.
Compare your answer:
What is the value?
-1
What is the value?
5
For 4 - 6, use the following equation:
Equation A:
Multiply the equation by 2, show the resulting equivalent equation, and label it A1.
Compare your answer:
Multiply the equation by -5, show the resulting equivalent equation, and label it A2.
Compare your answer:
Multiply the equation by show the resulting equivalent equation, and label it A3.
Compare your answer:
For 7 - 9, use the following equations:
The new equations A1, A2, and A3 and Equation B:
Use the graphing tool or technology outside the course. Graph the system of equations A1 and B using the Desmos tool below.
Compare your answer:
Use the graphing tool or technology outside the course. Graph the system of equations A2 and B using the Desmos tool below.
Compare your answer:
Use the graphing tool or technology outside the course. Graph the system of equations A3 and B using the Desmos tool below.
Compare your answer:
Make a couple of observations about the graphs of Equations A1, A2, and A3.
Compare your answer:
Your answer may vary, but here is a sample. No new graphs appeared. The graphs of the equivalent equations are identical to that of Equation A. The graphs all intersect the graph of Equation B at .
