Answer:
2 sets of possible solutions:
x=3, y = 5
and
x=-1, y = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the graphical method, (see attached)
you can graph both equations and find their intersection points.
From the attached plot, you can see that the graphs intersect at (3,5) and (-1,-3)
Alternatively, you can solve this numerically by solving the following system of equations. You will get the same answer.
y = 2x + 1 ------------------- eq. (1)
y = x² - 4 ------------------- eq. (2)
1, 2, 3, 4, 1+4, 2+4, 3+4, 4+4, 4+4+1, 4+4+2, 11, 12, 13, 14, 14+1, 14+2, 14+3, 14+4, 14+4+1, 14+4+2, 21, 22, 23, 24, 24+1, 24+2, 24+3, 24+4, 24+4+1, 24+4+2, 31, 32, 33, 34, 34+1, 34+2, 34+3, 34+4, 34+4+1, 34+4+2 ,41,42, 43, 44, 44+1, 44+2, 44+3, 44+4, 44+4+1, 44+4+2
Answer:
x = 3, the error is that the -2x should be added.
Step-by-step explanation:
The -2x should be added to the left side.
3x - 7 = -2x + 8
3x + 2x = 8 + 7
5x = 15
x =3
