Solve the simultaneous equations j-k= 2 and j2 + 2k=8. Give the answer in three decimal places.

Answer is j=2.606, j=4.606 and k=0.606, k=-6.606

Can you show me how to do it step by step

Step-by-step explanation:

hello :

here is an solution :

j=2.606, j=-4.606 and k=0.606, k=-6.606

Step-by-step explanation:

First step is to merge the formulas so that you are left with one combined equation with only one variable. Let's go for j, so we won't have to fiddle with the quadratic term:

First we convert j-k=2 to k=j-2, then we plug in this value for k in the other equation:

j² + 2(j-2) = 8

j² +2j -4 = 8

j² + 2j -12 = 0

This we can solve using the quadratic formula:

j = (-2 ± √(2²-4·1·-12) ) / 2

= (-2 ± √52)/2

= -1 ± √13

So j ≈ 2.6056 or j≈-4.6056

k can be found by subtracting 2.

false

step-by-step explanation:

whenever we assume a point on a plane then according to geometry it will definitely have 2 dimensions and if it assumed in space then it will have 3 dimensions.

its kind of blurry. can you put a clearer pic?
