Question
- find the point(s) of intersection of the line y = x + 4 and the circle x² + y² + 6x - 4y = 12.
Step1: Substitute y into circle equation
Substitute $y = x + 4$ into $x^{2}+y^{2}+6x - 4y=12$.

Step2: Solve the quadratic equation
Factor the quadratic equation $x^{2}+5x - 6 = 0$.
$(x + 6)(x - 1)=0$
So $x=-6$ or $x = 1$.
Step3: Find corresponding y - values
When $x=-6$, $y=-6 + 4=-2$.
When $x = 1$, $y=1 + 4=5$.
