standard_description: Solve a simple system consisting of a linear equation and a quadratic equation in two variables algebraically and graphically. For example, find the points of intersection between the line y = –3x and the circle x^(2 )+ y^(2) = 3.
problem_activity: Problem 1
Find the product.
$${(x-3)(x^2-2x+3)}$$
Once we find the product, how would we work backwards to get both factors again?
Problem 2
What is the other factor you would multiply
$${x-2}$$
by to get the polynomial
$${x^4-4x^2-5x+10}$$
?
