Solve simultaneously <br> Y=x-2<br> Y^2=x

omeli [17]

$\left \{ {{y=x-2} \atop {\ y^2=x}} \right. \\ \\ \\
y=x-2 \\
y^2=(x-2)^2=x^2-4x+4 \\ \\ \\
y^2=x \\
x^2-4x+4=x \\
x^2-5x+4=0$

$a=1 \\ b=-5 \\ c=4 \\ \\ x=\frac{-(-5) \pm \sqrt{(-5)^2 - 4 \cdot 1 \cdot 4}}{2 \cdot 1}=\frac{5 \pm \sqrt{25 - 16}}{2}=\frac{5 \pm \sqrt{9}}{2}=\frac{5 \pm 3}{2} \\ \\
x=\frac{5+3}{2} \ \lor \ x=\frac{5-3}{2} \\ \\
x=\frac{8}{2} \ \lor \ x=\frac{2}{2} \\ \\
x=4 \ \lor \ x=1$

$y=4-2 \ \lor \ y=1-2 \\
y=2 \ \lor \ y=-1 \\ \\ \\
 \left \{ {{x=4} \atop {y=2}} \right. \ \lor \ \left \{ {{x=1} \atop {y=-1}} \right.$
