is a linear equation. Its graph is a straight line.
is not a linear equation.
It is an equation of degree 2 (the greatest exponent),
and we call it a quadratic equation.
Quadratic functions like graph as parabolas,
and this one looks like .
The two function graphed together look like this:
.
It is easy to see that there will be two answers:
the two pairs of coordinates of the intersection points.
Let's find them.
There are, and there will be two equations,
but we can combine them so as to get an equation with no ,
and replace the combination for one of the equations,
We can easily combine them by substituting
the expression for
in the equation that is not .
We can keep the simpler equation ,
and substitute the combination for the other one.
--->
Now we solve the equation in (no )

There are two solutions for : ,
and for each of them, there will be a corresponding .
