Problem with system of equations

131 Views Asked by At

I wonder how to solve this system of equations: $\begin{cases} 2x^2+y^2=43\\2x^2+4xy=78\end{cases}$

when I subtract I have $y(4x-y)=35$ but I don't if it is good way to look for the solutions.

Adding both the equations gives you : $$4x^2 + 4xy + y^2 = 121$$ $$(2x+y)^2 = 121$$ You will get $y$ in terms of $x$ from this equation which you can substitute in the given equation, solve the quadratic equation, find $x$ and eventually $y$.
