Question 2149
i have no idea what the question is asking to be honest. However, assuming it is looking for where the 2 things are equal, then this is just simultaneous equations....

{{{p^2 = q+5}}} - eqn1
{{{4p^2 + q = 30}}} - eqn2

sub 1 into 2 to give {{{4(q+5)+q=30}}}
4q+20+q=30
5q=10
q=2

sub this back into 1 or 2, gives p=+{{{sqrt(7)}}} or p=-{{{sqrt(7)}}}

Does the -ve p answer makes sense to the question? I am not sure.
