Solving Systems and Quadratic Functions

The video tutorial explains how to solve systems of equations composed of linear and quadratic equations graphically. It covers the integrated algebra standard AG9, focusing on graphing techniques to find solutions. The lesson discusses the possible intersections between a parabola and a line, including two points, one point, or no intersection. The tutorial demonstrates graphing a quadratic equation, finding its vertex, and using symmetry to identify points. It also covers graphing a linear equation, identifying x-intercepts, and verifying solutions. The lesson concludes with factoring quadratic equations and checking solutions.
