Thea has a rectangular flower
garden whose perimeter is 18 m
and area is 14 m2. She was told by
her friend Timothy that this
information is enough to
determine the dimensions of her
garden. Is Anthony’s claim true?

TECHNIQUES IN SOLVING SYSTEMS
OF NONLINEAR EQUATIONS
SUBSTITUTION METHOD
➢ In substitution, we solve one equation for one variable and then
substitute this expression into the other equation
ELIMINATION METHOD
➢ In elimination, we get rid of one of the variables by adding or
subtracting equations (or multiples of equations)
➢ Can be used only when a variable has the same power in each of
the equations

TYPES OF SYSTEMS
BASED ON SOLUTIONS
INCONSISTENT SYSTEM
➢ a system of equations with no solution
➢ graphs do not have an intersection
CONSISTENT SYSTEM
➢ A system of equations with one or infinitely many solutions
❖ INDEPENDENT - a consistent system with exactly one solution (graphs
intersect at exactly only point)
❖ DEPENDENT - a consistent system with infinitely many solutions (graphs
coincide)
