Question 436900: How would I solve this problem?
Graph the equations of the system. Then solve the system to find the points of intersection.
y = x^2 - 6x + 9
y = -x + 3
Do I need to find the intersections first before I can graph?
Thank you very much for your help.

Hi

Graph the equations of the system

y = x^2 - 6x + 9  OR y = (x-3)^2

Using the vertex form of a parabola,  where(3,0) is the vertex

y = -x + 3

Using the standard slope-intercept form for an equation of a line y = mx + b

  where m = -1 is the slope and 3 the y-intercept. Pt(0,3) on the this line 

Graph. Points of Intersection, the ordered pairs that are solutions for this system:

 Pt(0,3) and (2,1)
