The solutions to the given system of equations is (0, -6) and (1, -5)
<h3>Simultaneous equations</h3>
From the question, we are to determine the solutions to the given system of equations
The equations are
x − y = 6 --------- (1)
y = x² −6 ---------- (2)
From equation (1)
x - y = 6
∴ x = 6 + y ------- (3)
Substitute into equation (2)
y = x² −6
y = (6+y)² −6
y = (6+y)(6+y) -6
y = 36 + 6y + 6y +y² -6
y = 36 + 12y + y² - 6
Simplifying
y² + 12y - y + 30 = 0
y² + 11y + 30 = 0
Solve quadratically
y² + 11y + 30 = 0
y² + 6y + 5y + 30 = 0
y(y +6) +5 (y +6) = 0
(y + 5)(y + 6) = 0
y + 5 = 0 OR y + 6 = 0
y = -5 OR y = -6
Substitute the values of y into equation (3)
x = 6 + y
When y = -5
x = 6 + (-5)
x = 6 -5
x = 1
When y = -6
x = 6 + (-6)
x = 6 -6
x = 0
∴ When x = 0, y = -6 and when x = 1, y = -5
Hence, the solutions to the given system of equations is (0, -6) and (1, -5)

I may not be able to help you but i do feel your pain lol
Hello!
Rate of income tax = Tax paid / Monthly income
⇒ Rate = 8,000 / 40,000
⇒ Rate = 0.2
⇒ Rate = 20%
∴ The rate of income tax is 20%.
Answer:
y=4x
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 4x to both sides to get y=mx+b
0 is y-intercept.
4x is the slope.
Answer:
x = 0, 4/5
Step-by-step explanation:
The zero-product property states that if the product of a and b is zero, then either a = 0, b = 0, or both terms equal zero
- Here our a term is -x and our b term is (5x - 4)
- Setting each term equal to zero and solving for x we get
- -x = 0 → x = 0
- 5x - 4 = 0 → 5x = 4 → x = 4/5
