-x+2y=3 x^2+y=3 How do I solve with substitution?
Add the 2 equations.
you probably didn't mean x^2.
I ment how do I deal with the x squared
Or if you did, multiply the second equation by -2, and then add.
-x+2y=3 x^2+y=3 ---> times -2 ---> -2x²-2y=-6 now -x+2y=3 -2x²-2y=-6 ----------
Isolate one of the variables from one of the equations then sub it into the other.
basically.
So can you show us some work?
@bannannna
I got to -2x^2-x+3=0
Yeah usually when you ask Op to show work, they leave. So at that point I leave as well, because I know they aren't willing to learn.
I didn't leave just app doesn't show me typing
We have two equations -x + 2y = 3 & x^2 + y = 3 , So you can use any substitution, So here we solve second equation x^2 + y = 3 for y , so we will get y=3 - x^2. Now plug this value y = 3-x^2 in first equation & solve for x, That is - x + 2(3-x^2) =3 , => -x + 6 - 2x^2=3, => -2x^2 -x+3=0 now use quadratic formula & solve for x then plug that value of x in any equation you will get y
Ohh I see
I know what to do now thanks
you are welcome :)
