Question

How can x2 = 2x + 4 be set up as a system of equations? (1 point) a y = x2 − 2x + 4 y = x2 + 2x + 4 b y = x2 y = x2 + 2x + 4 c y = x2 + 2x y = x2 + 4 d y = x2 y = 2x + 4

Answer 1

Answer: x=3 and y=4

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=7;x+2y=11

Step: Solvex+y=7for x:

x+y=7

x+y+−y=7+−y(Add -y to both sides)

x=−y+7

Step: Substitute−y+7forxinx+2y=11:

x+2y=11

−y+7+2y=11

y+7=11(Simplify both sides of the equation)

y+7+−7=11+−7(Add -7 to both sides)

y=4

Step: Substitute4foryinx=−y+7:

x=−y+7

x=−4+7

x=3(Simplify both sides of the equation)

Answer:

x=3 and y=4
