Question

Solve the system of equations.

y = 3x
y=x²-4
A. (-1, -3) and (4, 12)
O B. (-4, 12) and (1, -3)
C. (-1, 3) and (4, -12)
OD. (-4,-12) and (1, 3)

Answer 1

A

Explanation:

Se them equal to each other

3x =
`x^(2)` - 4

`x^(2)` -3x -4 = 0

(x + 1) ( x -4)

x + 1 = 0

x = -1

y = 3x

y = 3(-1)

y = -3

(-1,-3)

x - 4 = 0

x = 4

y = 3x

y = 3(4)

y = 12

(4, 12)
