The answer to the question
Answer:
M (-3, -5/2)
N (3, -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve the first equation for x.
4y = x − 7
x = 4y + 7
Substitute into the second equation.
x² + xy = 4 + 2y²
(4y + 7)² + (4y + 7)y = 4 + 2y²
Simplify.
16y² + 56y + 49 + 4y² + 7y = 4 + 2y²
18y² + 63y + 45 = 0
2y² + 7y + 5 = 0
Factor.
(y + 1) (2y + 5) = 0
y = -1 or -5/2
Plug back into the first equation to find x.
x = 4(-1) + 7 = 3
x = 4(-5/2) + 7 = -3
M (-3, -5/2)
N (3, -1)
