Solving Quadratic Equations and Systems

The video tutorial explains how to solve a system of equations where the sum of the squares of two numbers is 320 and their difference is eight. The method of substitution is used to solve the equations, leading to a quadratic equation that is expanded, simplified, and factored to find the solutions. The solutions are verified both algebraically and graphically, demonstrating two sets of solutions: one positive and one negative.
