How many solutions does the nonlinear system of equations graphed below have?
Y=-1/64(x-16)^2+4 Y=-1/2x-4

9514 1404 393

  2

Step-by-step explanation:

The graphs have two (2) points of intersection. Each point of intersection is a solution to the system of equations. The coordinates of that point satisfy both equations simultaneously.

There are 2 solutions to the graphed system of equations.

maximum area = xy = (16)(32) = 512 ft2

to maximize the area of the garden, the side of the fence parallel to the side of the house should be 32 ft long, and the other two sides should both have length 16 ft.'
