combining the 2 equations gives x^2 - 4x -6 = 0 which has no solution in integers. (4 +/- sqrt(16 +24))/2 =2 +/- 3.16 solutions are -1.16 and 5.16 Check: x^2 = 1.3456 -(-2.32) - 3 = 0.6656; 2 (-1.16) + 3 = -2.32 +3 = 0.68 and 5.16 ^2 = 26.256 - 10.32 - 3 = 13.3056; 2x = 10.32 =3 = 13.32 Near enough for the Government!
