Grade 8 and 9 questions Simultaneous Equations with a Quadratic

1) Solve these simultaneous equations.


y=x
y = x2 – 6

2) Solve these simultaneous equations.


y = x2 – 4
y = 3x

3) Solve these simultaneous equations.


y = x2 – x – 13
y=x+2

4) Solve these simultaneous equations.


y = x2 – 35
x–y=5

5) Solve these simultaneous equations.


x2 + y2 = 26
y+6=x

6) Sarah said that the line y = 7 cuts the curve x2 + y2 = 25 at two points.
