a^2 -4 =3a

a^2 -3a -4=0

(a-4) (a+1)=0

professor190 [17]

The solution of the given equations is: (-1.5, 1.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear equation usually represents a straight line. When a system of two liner equations is given, the point of intersection of lines represented by both equations is the solution of the system of equations.

We will plot the lines of both equations and find their point of intersection (Picture Attached)

We can see in the picture that two lines intersect at (-1.5, 1.5)

Hence,

The solution of the given equations is: (-1.5, 1.5)
