Simultaneous equations
y=x+2
y=x^2

(- 1, 1 ) and (2, 4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = x + 2 → (1)

y = x² → (2)

Substitute y = x² into (1)

x² = x + 2 ( subtract x + 2 from both sides )

x² - x - 2 = 0 ← in standard form

(x - 2)(x + 1) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2

x + 1 = 0 ⇒ x = - 1

Substitute these values into (1) for corresponding values of y

x = 2 → y = 2 + 2 = 4 ⇒ (2, 4 )

x = - 1 → y = - 1 + 2 = 1 ⇒ (- 1, 1 )
