solve for x and y (solutions of equations involving quadratic equations) \[4x^{2}+y ^{2}=17\] \[x ^{2}+y=5\]
y^2 = 17 - 4x^2 , substitute that
err
x^2 = (17 - y^2)/4
so (17 - y^2)/4 + y = 5
beat everyone else ;)
so you have -y^2/4 + y - 5 + 17/4 = 0
y=1, y=3
when y = 1 , x = 2 , and when y = 3 , x = sqrt 2
4x^2 = 17 - y^2 - equation 1 x^2 + y = 5 x^2 = 5 -y - equation 2 substitute equation to into equation 1, you will get 4(5-y) = 17 - y^2 expand everything and you will get 20 - 4y = 17 - y^2 bring everything to one side and you will get y^2-4y+3 = 0 solve this you wil get (y-3)(y-1)=0 so y = 3 and y =1 substitute y = 3 and y =1 into equation 2 if y = 3 x^2 = 5-3 *solve this if y = 1 x^2 = 5-1 x = 2
thank you so much :)
no medals?
