With k(0<k<0.5) and u(-1<u<1) as independent variables and x and y as dependent variables, how do you graph x and y, respectively, for a system of implicit function equations?
You have 2 parameters, k and u. If you were to fix those parameters, then you could solve for the solutions. There would be zero...
