Q. Solve the system of equations.y=x2−38x−50y=−38x+50Write the coordinates in exact form. Simplify all fractions and radicals.(______,______)(______,______)
Set Equations Equal: Set the two equations equal to each other since they both equal y.y=x2−38x−50y=−38x+50x2−38x−50=−38x+50
Cancel Out Terms: Cancel out the −38x on both sides.x2−38x−50+38x=−38x+50+38xx2−50=50
Add to Isolate x2: Add 50 to both sides to isolate x2.x2−50+50=50+50x2=100
Take Square Root: Take the square root of both sides to solve for x.x2=100x=10 or x=−10
Substitute x for y: Substitute x back into one of the original equations to find y.For x=10: y=−38(10)+50y=−380+50y=−330
Substitute x Again: Substitute x back into one of the original equations to find y for the second value of x.For x=−10: y=−38(−10)+50y=380+50y=430
Write Coordinates: Write the coordinates in exact form.First Coordinate: (10,−330)Second Coordinate: (−10,430)
