just need the steps
OpenStudy (anonymous):
there are many diffrent ways to fo this but we r going to do this this way,
staep 1 take x and y and put them on 1 side

alright
OpenStudy (anonymous):
y +x^2= 4
y - 2x = 1
then subtract y from y
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i think i dont i just oearned his last month
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yeah i dont no sorry

1. Subtract the 2 equations and factor them out and set equal to 0 to solve for x:
\[-x^2-2x+3=0\rightarrow -(x^2+2x-3)=0\rightarrow -[(x+3)(x-1)]=0\]
2. Then, solve for x:
\[x = -3 and 1\]
3. Plug x in to solve for y for 1 solution:
\[y = 2x+1\rightarrow y = 2(1)+1\rightarrow y = 3\]
4. Plug in x to solve y for 2nd solution: \[y = 2x + 1\rightarrow y = 2(-3)+1\rightarrow y = -5\]
5. Solutions are (1,3) and (-3,-5)
