Explain why the graphing calculator cannot be used to solve or approximate solutions to all polynomial equations.
A graphing calculator cannot solve or approximate every polynomial equation because some polynomial equations have complex, nonreal solutions. Graphs in the real Cartesian x-y plane show only real solutions, so complex solutions cannot be found as x-intercepts or intersections; equations with only complex solutions have no x-intercepts.
