Answer

$$\left\{ {\left( { - 3,4} \right),\left( {1,12} \right)} \right\}$$

Work Step by Step

$$\eqalign{ & y = 2x + 10\,\,\,\,\,\left( {\bf{1}} \right) \cr & {x^2} + y = 13\,\,\,\,\,\,\left( {\bf{2}} \right) \cr & {\text{Substitute }}2x + 10{\text{ for }}y{\text{ into the equation }}\left( {\bf{2}} \right) \cr & {x^2} + 2x + 10 = 13\, \cr & {\text{Solve for }}x \cr & {x^2} + 2x - 3 = 0 \cr & \left( {x + 3} \right)\left( {x - 1} \right) = 0 \cr & {x_1} = - 3,\,\,\,\,{x_2} = 1 \cr & \cr & {\text{Substitute }}{x_1} = - 3{\text{ into the equation }}y = 2x + 10{\text{ to find }}\left( {{x_1},{y_1}} \right) \cr & y = 2\left( { - 3} \right) + 10 \cr & y = 4 \cr & {\text{The first solution is }}\left( { - 3,4} \right) \cr & \cr & {\text{Substitute }}{x_2} = 1{\text{ into the equation }}y = 2x + 10{\text{ to find }}\left( {{x_2},{y_2}} \right) \cr & y = 2\left( 1 \right) + 10 \cr & y = 12 \cr & {\text{The second solution is }}\left( {1,12} \right) \cr & \cr & {\text{Therefore, the solution set of the system is}} \cr & \left\{ {\left( { - 3,4} \right),\left( {1,12} \right)} \right\} \cr} $$
