find the exact solution(s) of each system of equations
x^2-y^2=-8
y=2x+1
-----
Substitute for "y" and solve for "x"::
x^2 - (2x+1)^2 = -8
--------
x^2 - (4x^2 + 4x + 1) = -8
--------
-3x^2-4x+7 = 0
-----
-3x^2-7x+3x+7 = 0
----------------------
-x(3x+7) + (3x+7) = 0
-----------------------
(3x+7)(-x+1) = 0
------------------------
x = -7/3 or x = 1
