    X²-x+6=y

    2x+2y=36

    divide 2nd equation by 2 for ease

    x+y=18

    subsitute x²-x+6 for y in 2nd equation

    x+x²-x+6=18

    minus 18 both sides and combine like terms

    x²-12=0

    add 12 both sides

    x²=12

    sqrt both sides

    x=+/-√12

    x=+/-2√3

    sub back

    x²-x+6=y

    try 2√3 then - 2√3

    2√3

    (2√3) ² - (2√3) + 6=y

    12-2√3+6=y

    18-2√3=y

    other one

    -2√3

    (-2√3) ² - (-2√3) + 6=y

    12+2√3+6=y

    18+2√3=y

    solutions are (-2√3,18+2√3) and (2√3,18-2√3)
