Problem
How many ordered pairs 
of real numbers satisfy the following system of equations?
![\[x^2+3y=9\]](http://latex.artofproblemsolving.com/c/0/9/c09aed7a84906eb65f1fa163a7a7d92168877583.png)
![\[(|x|+|y|-4)^2 = 1\]](http://latex.artofproblemsolving.com/4/d/d/4dd5d2dee801931df0406925786a98be62e43cc2.png)
Solution (Graphing)
The second equation is 
. We know that the graph of 
is a very simple diamond shape, so let's see if we can reduce this equation to that form.
}.
We now have two separate graphs for this equation and one graph for the first equation, so let's put it on the coordinate plane:
import graph; Label f; f.p=fontsize(6); xaxis(-8,8,Ticks(f, 2.0,0.5)); yaxis(-8,8,Ticks(f, 2.0,0.5)) (Error making remote request. Unknown error_msg)
