Answer:

Option (2) is correct.

[tex]2y^2-y-6=0[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two equations [tex]x=y^2-1[/tex] and [tex]2x-y=4[/tex]

We have to choose an equation from the given options which could be the result of using substitution to solve the system.

Since the given equation is in term of y , so we make substitution of x in term of y.

From [tex]2x-y=4[/tex],

⇒ [tex]x=\frac{4+y}{2}[/tex]

Substitute  [tex]x=\frac{4+y}{2}[/tex]  in other equation [tex]x=y^2-1[/tex]

We get, [tex]x=y^2-1 \Rightarrow \frac{4+y}{2}=y^2-1[/tex]

Cross multiply we get,

[tex]\Rightarrow {4+y}=2y^2-2[/tex]

Solving further, we get

[tex]\Rightarrow 2y^2-y-6=0[/tex]

Thus, option (2) is correct.

The equations that could be the result of using substitution to solve the system is 2y^2 - y - 6 = 0

System of equations


Given the system of equations expressed as:

x = y^2 - 1

2x - y = 4

Substitute equation 1 into  to have:

2(y^2 - 1) - y= 4

Expand to have:

2y^2 - 2 - y = 4

2y^2 - y - 6 = 0

Hence the equations that could be the result of using substitution to solve the system is 2y^2 - y - 6 = 0
