Solve the following nonlinear system of equations x2 y2 39
     Solve the following nonlinear system of equations.  x^2 - y^2 = 39  x - y = 3  Find the value of the determinant |-6 -8  b a| 
  
  Solution
14) x2 - y2 = 39
x - y = 3
x = 3 + y
Put value of x in the given equation:
(3 + y)2 - y2 = 39
9 + 6y + y2 - y2 = 39
6y = 30
y = 5
x = 3 + y = 3 + 5
x = 8
15) Determinant IDI = (-6)(a) - (-8)(b) = - 6a + 8b
