Question 861388: Please I need help solving this word problem.
One integer is 10 less than 3 times another. The sum of their squares is 100. What are the two integer
Here is how I set up my equation. x(10-3x)=100
10x-3x^2=100
10x-3x^2-100=0
3x^2-10x-100=0

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
y=3x-10, a line
x^2+y^2=100 a circle
x = 0, y = -10
x = 6, y = 8
