Solve the following system. y = (1/2)x 2 + 2x - 1 and 3x - y = 1 The solutions are ( )and ( ) (remember to include the commas)

frozen [14]

$\begin{cases}y=\dfrac{1}{2}x+2x-1\\3x-y=1\end{cases}\\\\\\
\begin{cases}y=\dfrac{5}{2}x-1\3x-y=1\end{cases}\\\\\\
3x-\left(\dfrac{5}{2}x-1\right)=1\\\\3x-\dfrac{5}{2}x+1=1\\\\
3x-\dfrac{5}{2}x=0\\\\\dfrac{x}{2}=0\\\\x=0\\\\3\times0-y=1\\0-y=1\\y=-1\\\\\boxed{(x,y)=(0,-1)}$
