The number of solutions possible to a system of equations that include a conic section depends on the type of equations involved

<h3>How to determine the number of solutions?</h3>

A system of equation that has a conic section may or may not have solutions.

It would have a solution if the equations intersect, when plotted on a graph and it would not, if otherwise

A conic section can be any of:

  • Parabola
  • Ellipse
  • Hyperbola
  • Circle

<u>Example 1: No solution</u>

Consider the following system of equations

  • y = x² - 10 --- parabola equation
  • (x - 1)² + (y - 2)² = 5 --- circle

The above system of equations has no solution because they do not intersect when plotted on a graph (see graph 1)

<u>Example 2: One solution</u>

Consider the following system of equations

  • x = 2 --- linear equation
  • y = x² - 10 --- parabola

The above system of equations has one solution because they intersect at one point (see graph 2)

<u>Example 3: One solution</u>

Consider the following system of equations

  • y = 2x + 1 --- linear equation
  • y = x² - 10 --- circle

The above system of equations has two solutions because they intersect at two points (see graph 3)

The above examples imply that a system of equations that involves conic section can have as many solutions as possible.

The number of solutions depends on the type of equations involved

The attached graphs illustrate how a system of equations can have 0 to 4 solutions

The equation would be Y=-3X+5

This is because there is a y-intercept(meaning Y value at X=0) of 5 and a slope(meaning the amount the y value changes by every time the x value increases by one) of -3.
