Answer:

(x + 3)² = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 6x - 5 = 0

Add 5 and 9 on both sides.

x² + 6x + 9 = 14

Factor left side.

(x + 3)² = 14

Take the square root on both sides.

(x + 3) = ±√14

Subtract 3 on both sides.

x = -3 ±√14

Solve the following system using the Substitution method:
Liono4ka [1.6K]

<u>Answer:</u>

(x, y) = (-2, 2)

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We are given the following two equations which we are to solve using the substitution method:

x - y = -4 --- (1)

x - 2y = -6 --- (2)

From equation (1):

x = y-4

Substituting this value of x in (2) to get:

x = [tex]x - 2y = -6\\\\(y-4)-2y=-6\\\\-y=-6+4\\\\-y=-2[/tex]

y = 2

Substituting the value of y in (1) to get x:

x - y = -4

x - 2 = -4

x = -4 + 2

x = -2

Therefore, (x, y) = (-2, 2).
