Solve simultaneously y equals 2-x and x2 plus 2xy equals 3?

Answer 1

if y = 2- x then x^2 + 2x(2 - x) = 3 ie x^2 + 4 x -2x^2 = 3 ie 4x - 3 = x^2 x^2 - 4x +3 = 0 = (x - 1)(x - 3) so x = 1 or 3 Check: y= 2 - 1 =1; x^2 = 1, 2xy = 2 x 1 x 1 = 2, 1 +2 = 3. y = 2 - 3 = -1; x^2 = 9, 2xy = 2 x 3 x -1 = -6, 9 + -6 = 3. QED.
