Question

Solve the system of equations. y=23x–19 x2–y= – 6x–23 Write the coordinates as integers, simplified proper or improper fractions, or simplified radical expressions.

Answer 1

(3, 50) and (14,303)

Explanation:

Given the system of equations;

y=23x–19 ....1

x²–y= – 6x–23 ...2

Substitute 1 into 2;

x²–(23x-19)= – 6x–23

x²–23x+19= – 6x–23 .

x²-23x + 6x + 19 + 23 = 0

x² - 17x + 42 = 0

Factorize;

x² - 14x - 3x + 42 = 0

x(x-14)-3(x-14) = 0

(x-3)(x-14) = 0

x = 3 and 14

If x = 3

y = 23(3) - 19

y = 69-19

y = 50

If x = 14

y = 23(14) - 19

y = 322-19

y = 303

Hence the coordinate solutions are (3, 50) and (14,303)
