Answer:
x= 1.5, y= 3.5
or x= -5, y= 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve by substitution.
Label the two equations:
y= 2x² +6x -10 -----(1)
y= -x +5 -----(2)
Substitute (2) into (1):
2x² +6x -10= -x +5
2x² +6x +x -10 -5= 0
Simplify:
2x² +7x -15= 0
Factorise:
(2x -3)(x +5)= 0
2x -3= 0 or x +5= 0
2x= 3 or x= -5
x= 1.5
Now that we have found the value of x, we can find the value of y through substitution.
Substitute into (2):
y= -1.5 +5 or y= -(-5) +5
y= 3.5 or y= 10
