Q & A
What is the main advantage of using Desmos for graphing equations compared to physical graphing calculators?
-Desmos allows you to graph an equation without needing to solve for y by itself, as long as the equation is in terms of X and Y.
How does Desmos help in finding the solution to a system of equations?
-Desmos helps by allowing you to input the equations and visually identify their intersection point, which is the solution to the system.
What is the solution to the system of equations 4x = 20 and -3x + y = -7 as demonstrated in the video?
-The solution is the point of intersection, which Desmos indicates as (5, 8).
How can you interact with the graph on Desmos to better visualize the intersection of equations?
-You can click and drag to move the graph around and use the scroll wheel to zoom in and out for a clearer view of the intersection.
What is the sum of x and y for the solution (5, 8) from the first example in the video?
-The sum of x and y is 5 + 8, which equals 13.
In the second example, what is the y-value of the solution to the system of equations 24x + y = 48 and 6x + y = 72?
-The y-value of the solution is 80.
How does Desmos handle systems of equations with different types of functions, such as linear and quadratic?
-Desmos can handle systems with linear and quadratic functions in the same way, by graphing both and finding their intersection.
What is the solution to the system involving the quadratic equation y = x^2 - 2x + 4 and the linear equation y = 6x - 12 as shown in the video?
-The solution is the point (2, 0), which is the intersection of the parabola and the line.
What additional benefit does using Desmos provide for solving systems of equations on the SAT?
-Using Desmos can save time on solving systems of equations, allowing more time to tackle tougher questions that require more thought and calculation.
What services does the tutor offer according to the video description?
-The tutor offers tutoring services for all sections of the SAT and all math subjects from about 7th grade to AP/early college level.
