Answer:
(x, y) = (-6, 15) and (2, -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
You can start by subtracting the second equation from the first.
(y) -(y) = (x^2 +2x -9) -(-2x +3)
0 = x^2 +4x -12 . . . . . . collect terms
0 = (x +6)(x -2) . . . . . . . factor
Solutions for x are -6 and +2. These values make the factors zero.
The corresponding solutions for y are ...
y = -2(-6) +3 = 15
y = -2(2) +3 = -1
Solutions to the system of equations are ...
(x, y) = (-6, 15) and (2, -1)
The valley in California has an elevation of feet "below sea level".
Below sea level means below 0 feet, so it'd have -5 feet
The one in Arizona would be lower than it, so the elevation will definitely be -9 feet

Answer:
where da question at
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: There are 97 nickels and 108 quarters.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = Number of nickels, y = Number of quarters.
As per given,
x+y = 205 ...(i)
0.05x+0.25y = 31.85 ... (ii) [1 nickel = $0.05, 1 quarter = $ 0.25]
Multiply (ii) by 20, we get
x+5y=637 ...(iii)
Eliminate (i) from (iii)
4y = 432
⇒ y = 108 [Divide both sides by 4]
Put value of y in (i), we get
Hence, there are 97 nickels and 108 quarters.
