SYSTEMS OF NON-LINEAR EQUATIONS
Solve the following systems of non-linear equations by either substitution and/or elimination.
SHOW ALL THE NECESSARY STEPS IN GETTING THE SOLUTION SET.
1) 3x – y = 0 and y = x2 – 4 3) x2 + y2 = 20 and x2 + 9y2 = 36

2) y = (x – 1)2 and (x – 1)2 + (y – 2)2 = 4 4) x2 + y2 – 4x = 0 and x2 + y2 = 8

5) MARKET EQUILIBRIUM---- D(x) = S(x)

In a free market, the demands for many products are related to the prices of the products. We see that as the prices
decrease, the demands by consumers increase and the amounts that the producers are able or willing to supply decrease.
Whenever the demand quantity meets the supply quantity, a market equilibrium is said to have been achieved. We usually
model these two values using equations like p = D(x) for demand and p = S(x) for supply, where p is the price per unit
and x is the number of units of the commodity.
The manufacturer of a certain commodity has figured out that its demand and supply are modeled by the equations,
D(x) = – 20x + 3,600 and S(x) = x2 + 100, respectively.
Determine the market equilibrium quantity x and the equilibrium price p.

6. What must be the dimensions of a rectangular garden if its area is 600 ft 2 and its perimeter 100 ft ?
