Solve Systems of Nonlinear Equations · Exercise 51
Solve the problem using a system of equations.
Roman found a widescreen TV on sale, but isn’t sure if it will fit his entertainment center. The TV is 60”. The size of a TV is measured on the diagonal of the screen and a widescreen has a length that is larger than the width. The screen also has an area of 1728 square inches.
