MHB Solve Simultaneous Equations y=2x²+3x-31 & y=21-2x

Click For Summary
To solve the simultaneous equations y=2x²+3x-31 and y=21-2x, equate the right-hand sides to find x. The discussion emphasizes the importance of understanding the calculations rather than simply receiving the answer. A suggestion was made to work through the problem independently for better learning. Participants encourage engagement with the problem to enhance comprehension. Ultimately, solving these equations requires careful substitution and algebraic manipulation.

I have moved this topic as it is a better fit here in the Pre-Algebra and Algebra sub-forum.

The suggestion given by Evgeny.Makarov is an excellent one, and you should be able to make at least some progress with it. If he does it for you, you will learn less than if you attempt it yourself. :D
