Solution
The image provided contains a problem in Spanish. The relevant part reads:
"Al resolver el sistema de ecuaciones , uno de los valores de es:"
And the answer choices are:
- A) 16
- B) 7
- C) 8
- D) 12
- E) 15
Let's break down and solve the problem:
-
The equation given is:
-
Isolate the square root involving and :
-
Square both sides to eliminate the square root:
-
Expand the square on the right-hand side: Simplifying the expression:
-
Since the problem asks for a specific value of , we need to find the value of that satisfies this equation, considering possible integer solutions.
Considering possible solutions:
To simplify further, it is often useful to test the answer choices directly. However, it is evident from the structure that when we focus on , the complexity of the radical might hint that simplifies the equation significantly. We can then approximate or directly compare the values.
After testing and evaluating, should be one of the valid solutions. Therefore, the correct answer is C) 8.
