Algebra.Com's Answer #80991 by scott8148(6628)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! from second equation y=x-1 ___ substituting into first equation gives 5x^2+3(x-1)^2=17\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "5x^2+3x^2-6x+3=17 ___ 8x^2-6x-14=0 ___ 4x^2-3x-7=0 ___ (4x-7)(x+1)=0\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "find the x values and plug into equation (the second one is easier) to find the corresponding y values for the (2) intersections \n" ); document.write( " |
