(3, 10 ) and (7, 30 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

5x - y = 5 → (1)

2y - x² = 11 → (2)

Rearrange (1) expressing y in terms of x

y = 5x - 5 → (3)

Substitute y = 5x - 5 into (2)

2(5x - 5) - x² = 11

10x - 10 - x² = 11 ← rearrange into standard form

x² - 10x + 21 = 0 ← in standard form

(x - 3)(x - 7) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 3 = 0 ⇒ x = 3

x - 7 = 0 ⇒ x = 7

Substitute these values into (3) for corresponding values of y

x = 3 → y = 5(3) - 5 = 15 - 5 = 10 ⇒ (3, 10 )

x = 7 → y = 5(7) - 5 = 35 - 5 = 30 ⇒ (7, 30 )

for ex: the reciprocal of 3/4 is 4/3. it is the opposite.

reciprocal definition:
