Sorry for taking so long, it wont let me type a while ago. I have it all fix now hehe. I took a picture of my work, ask me if you still don’t understand.
I am going to explain this using the substitution method, considering it appears to be the best in this situation.
We know (from the bottom equation) that y can equal 3x+20. Using this knowledge, we substitute the y in the top equation for 3x+20. Now, we have an equation that looks like this:
3x+20=x^2+2x
Now we need to move x to one side and then do some radicals (square roots).
Subtract the 2x on the right (since it is smaller, negatives = NONONO), which will give you
x+20=x^2
Now, we take the square root of both sides to get
rad(x+20)=x
Now we have to simplify. 20 doesn't have a square root, but 4 goes into 20, and 4 has a square root of 2. This now becomes
2rad(x+5)
This doesn't simplify any further... we have a problem... no way to isolate x as far as my knowledge goes... Sorry, can't help you any further than that, but another person or your teacher might be able to. R.I.P...
Answer:
Hey there!
The first equation has no solutions, as it is parallel lines.
The second equation has infinitely many solutions, as it is basically the same line, and the two lines intersect at infinite points.
The third equation is just one solution.
Let me know if this helps :)
