The question, in short

Solve the simultaneous equations 6x + y = 10 and y = x² − 3x + 10 to find the values of x.

Summarised in our own words. Use the official paper for the exact wording and any diagrams.

Solution · 3 marks

  1. 1y = 10 − 6x, so 10 − 6x = x² − 3x + 10
  2. 2x² + 3x = 0
  3. 3x(x + 3) = 0
  4. 4x = 0 or x = −3

Answer0 and −3
