Question

y^2-3y=4x

sorry the problem is y squared minus 3y is equal to 4x and we are to solve for "y"

That is the problem we were given.i wish I could send you a screenshot, but it is not working

Answer 1

As stated in question, we were given only one equation.

But there are two variables named x and y.

In this type of situtation, there will be infinite number of solutions. for every value of x we have, there will be a value exist for y.

lets give x=1, we have the equation now as y²-3y-4 = 0

which can be represented as y²-4y+y-4 = 0

further, y(y-4)-1(y-4) = 0

which gives, (y-1)(y-4)=0

for x=1, we have y=1 or y=4

So, similar to this there will be infinite set of solutions.
