Answer:

The two solutions in exact form are:


((15+√(335))/(10),(5-3√(335))/(10))

and


((15-√(335))/(10),(5+3√(335))/(10)).

If you prefer to look at approximations just put into your calculator:


(3.3303,-4.9909)

and


(-0.3303,5.9909).

Explanation:

I guess you are asked to find the solution the given system.

I'm going to use substitution.

This means I'm going to plug the second equation into the first giving me:


(-3x+5)^2+x^2=36 I replaced the 1st y with what the 2nd y equaled.

Before we continue solving this I'm going to expand the
(-3x+5)^2 using the following:


(a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2.


(-3x+5)^2=(-3x)^2+2(-3x)(5)+(5)^2


(-3x+5)^2=9x^2-30x+25

Let's go back to the equation we had:


(-3x+5)^2+x^2=36

After expansion of the squared binomial we have:


9x^2-30x+25+x^2=36

Combine like terms (doing the
9x^2+x^2 part:


10x^2-30x+25=36

Subtract 36 on both sides:


10x^2-30x+25-36=0

Simplify the 25-36 part:


10x^2-30x-11=0

Compare this to
ax^2+bx+c=0 which is standard form for a quadratic.

We should see the following:


a=10


b=-30


c=-11

The formula that solves this equation for the variable
x is:


x=(-b \pm √(b^2-4ac))/(2a)

Plugging in our values for
a,b, \text{ and } c give us:


x=(30 \pm √((-30)^2-4(10)(-11)))/(2(10))

Simplify the bottom; that is 2(10)=20:


x=(30 \pm √((-30)^2-4(10)(-11)))/(20)

Put the inside of square root into the calculator; that is put
(-30)^2-4(10)(-11) in the calculator:


x=(30 \pm √(1340))/(20)

Side notes before continuation:

Let's see if 1340 has a perfect square.

I know 1340 is divisible by 10 because it ends in 0.

1340=10(134)

134 is even so it is divisible by 2:

1340=10(2)(67)

1340=2(2)(5)(67)

1340=4(5)(67)

1340=4(335)

4 is a perfect square so we can simplify the square root part further:


√(1340)=√(4)√(335)=2√(335).

Let's go back to the solution:


x=(30 \pm √(1340))/(20)


x=(30 \pm 2 √(335))/(20)

Now I see all three terms contain a common factor of 2 so I'm going to divide top and bottom by 2:


x=((30)/(2) \pm (2 √(335))/(2))/((20)/(2))


x=(15 \pm √(335))/(10)

So we have these two x values:


x=(15+√(335))/(10) \text{ or } (15-√(335))/(10)

Now we just need to find the corresponding y-coordinate for each pair of points.

I'm going to use the easier equation
y=-3x+5.

Let's do it for the first x I mentioned:

If
x=(15+√(335))/(10) then


y=-3((15+√(335))/(10))+5.

Let's simplify:

Distribute the -3 to the terms on top:


y=(-45-3√(335))/(10)+5

Combine the two terms; I'm going to do this by writing 5 as 50/10:


y=(-45-3√(335)+50)/(10)

Combine like terms on top; the -45+50 part:


y=(5-3√(335))/(10).

So one solution point is:


((15+√(335))/(10),(5-3√(335))/(10)).

Let's find the other one for the other x that we got.

If
x=(15-√(335))/(10) then


y=-3((15-√(335))/(10))+5.

Let's simplify.

Distribute the -3 on top:


y=(-45+3√(335))/(10)+5

I'm going to write 5 as 50/10 so I can combine the terms as one fraction:


y=(-45+3√(335)+50)/(5)

Simplify the -45+50 part:


y=(5+3√(335))/(10).

So the other point of intersection is:


((15-√(335))/(10),(5+3√(335))/(10)).

The two solutions in exact form are:


((15+√(335))/(10),(5-3√(335))/(10))

and


((15-√(335))/(10),(5+3√(335))/(10)).

If you prefer to look at approximations just put into your calculator:


(3.3303,-4.9909)

and


(-0.3303,5.9909).
