One way to solve the system algebraically (show and explain the process) How to solve the system graphically(explain the process for working by hand, show the graph produced in EXCEL). Discuss any difficulties of either the algebraic or graphing method that you encountered. Bonus: Your assigned pair of equations has an ordered pair solution. Discuss and give examples of pairs of equations that are not “so well behaved.” Show you understand metacognition.
