Question 1115384: I made my own problem for fun and am trying to solve it:
x^2y + 5 = 17
While I was writing the equation, I decided to myself that x would be equal to 2 and y would be equal to 3. So far, I have:
x^2y + 5 - 5 = 17 - 5
x^2y = 12
x^2y/y = 12/y
Thanks in advance for your assistance.
However, I am unsure what to do next. I have no idea how to prove mathematically that x^2 equals 4 and y equals 3. I’m not even sure if it is possible to do so. Answer by josgarithmetic(39617) (Show Source):

So you gave yourself an equation and you picked some values, x=2 and y=3.
This should mean
Which is true.
You have nothing to solve. Whatever you were trying to solve was done.
You already gave yourself your value for x and your value for y.
