Question

2

Answer 1

Answer:

(1.13, 7.74) and (-4.13, 18.26)

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be solved in two ways:  mathematically and graphically.

Graphing

Plot both lines and find where they intersect.  See the attachment.

The intersection points are (1.13, 7.74) and (-4.13, 18.26)

Mathematical

y + 2x = 10

y = 10 - 2x

y = 3x² + 7x - 4

10 - 2x = 3x² + 7x - 4

3x² + 9x - 14 = 0

Solve this using the quadratic equation:

x = 1.13 and -4.13

Use these two values of x to find y:

y = 10 - 2x

y = 10 - 2(1.13)

y = 7.74

y = 10 -2x

y = 10 -2(-4.13)

y =  18.26

The two points are:

(1.13, 7.74) and (-4.13, 18.26)
