If: 2x+y = 1

Then: y = 1-2x

If: x^2 + xy + y^2 = 7

Then: x^2 +x(1-2x) +(1-2x)^2 = 7

So: x^2 +x-2x^2 +1-4x+4x^2 -7 = 0

Collecting like terms: 3x^2 -3x -6 = 0

Divide all terms by 3: x^2 -x -2 = 0

Factorizing (x+1)(x-2) = 0 => x = -1 or x = 2

Solutions by substitution: (-1, 3) and (2, -3)

2x + y = 1therefore y = 1 - 2x.


Also, x^2 + xy + y^2 = 7

Substitute for y

x^2 + x*(1-2x) + (1-2x)^2 = 7

x^2 + x - 2x^2 + 1 - 4x + 4x^2 = 7

Rearrange: 3x^2 - 3x - 6 = 0

Divide by 3: x^2 - x - 2 = 0

Factorise (x + 1)*(x - 2) = 0

=> x = -1 or x = 2

x = -1 => y = 1 - 2*(-1) = 3

x = 2 => y = 1 - 2*2 = -3

The solutions are (-1, 3) and (2, -3)

What is x y squared?

You can only get a specific number for an expression if you assign numbers to the variables. As an expression, the existing expression cannot be simplified.


Which equation has a solution of -4?

What are the solutions to the simultaneous equations of 3xy -y squared equals 8 and x -2y equals 1?

The two equations are: 1) 3xy - y² = 8 2) x - 2y = 1 Make x the subject of (2): x - 2y = 1 → x = 2y + 1 substitute for x in (1) and solve for y: 3xy - y² = 8 → 3(2y + 1)y - y² = 8 → 6y + 3y - y² - 8 = 0 → 5y + 3y - 8 = 0 → (5y + 8)(y - 1) = 0 → 5y + 8 = 0 → y = -8/5 or y - 1 = 0 → y = 1 and substitute into 2 to find the corresponding x: y = -8/5 → x = 2(-8/5) + 1 = -11/5 y = 1 → x = 2(1) + 1 = 3 → the solutions are the ordered pairs (-11/5, -8/5) {or (-2.2, -1.6)} and (3, 1)


X squared minus 5x minus 24?

How do you foil 2x squared plus 7x plus 5?

This is a quadratic equation, and so you it falls under the rule: ax squared + bx + c. This means you need to times the 2x squared by 5, which is 10. Then you need to find the factors of ten, i.e. 2 and 5, 10 and 1. You need to find the pair of factors that add to make 7x, which would be 2 and 5. you then need to put these into the equation - it would become 2x squared + 2x (as one equation) and 5x + 5 would be another equation. we can see that 2x squared and 2x have 2x in common, and so the answer for that would be 2x (x + 1). the second equation would be 5 (x + 1). the two equations have x + 1 in common, and that would make up the first set of brackets. you then add the rest (2x +5) and your answer would be (x+1) (2x+5). FOIL is a different method used for 'easier' equations - less complicated. :)
