i rearranged the second equation to get x = -y + 3

Rearrange the second equation and sub it into the first equation

icy cliff
#

yea i did

#

i expanded it and used the quadratic formula but i got a math error

#

(3-y) ^2 + y^2 = 17

#

2x^2 - 6x + 8 = 0

x^2 -3x + 4 = 0, then i got a math error when i plugged that in the formula

#

It’s negative 8

icy cliff
#

ohh

#

so it'd be -4

#

?

#

@dreamy scroll i got 3 + root13 / 2 and 3 - root13 / 2

#

is that correct

dreamy scroll
#

Seems so

All your other math is correct
