RATIONAL FUNCTIONS Graphing And Analysis (Page 11 of 19)

Now locate the intersection point using the intersect command in the CALC menu. This command will ask three questions. You must select two graphs (there are only two for this example) and then enter a guess. The guess can be any x-value that is close to the x-coordinate of the intersection point. We will use a guess of -3.

 2nd CALC key. 5: menu selection.
 ENTER key. (Mark the first graph)
 ENTER key. (Mark the second graph)
