Step-by-step explanation:
x-y=3....a
x^2+y^2=89....b
find x and y
squaring both sides of eq. a
(x-y)^2=3^2
x^2+y^2-2xy=9
putting the value of x^2+y^2 from eq. b we get
89-2xy=9
89-9=2xy
2xy=80; xy=40...c
xy=40 and
x-y=3 from eq. a
x=3+y
putting the value of x in eq. c we get
(3+y)(y)=40
3y+y^2=40
y^2+3y-40=0
solving the quadratic equation..
y^2+8y-5y-40=0
y(y+8)-5(y+8)=0
(y-5)(y+8)=0
y=5; y= - 8
if y=5
x-y=3; x-5=3; x=3+5; x=8
if y= - 8
x-y=3; x-(-8)=3; x+8=3; x=3-8; x=-5
