Determine, for any positive real number $a$, the number of solutions $(x,y)$ to the system of equations $$\begin{cases} |x|+|y|= 1 \\ x^2 + y^2 = a \end{cases}$$ where $x$ and $y$ are real numbers.
Find minimal value of $a \in \mathbb{R}$ such that system $$\sqrt{x-1}+\sqrt{y-1}+\sqrt{z-1}=a-1$$ $$\sqrt{x+1}+\sqrt{y+1}+\sqrt{z+1}=a+1$$ has solution in set of real numbers
Let $a, b,c$ and $d$ be rea] numbers such that $a^2 + b^2 = c^2 + d^2 = 1$ and $ac + bd = 0$. Determine the value of $ab + cd$.
On the puzzle page of a newspaper this problem is proposed: “Two children, Antonio and José, have $160$ comics. Antonio counts his by $7$ by $7$ and there are $4$ left over. José counts his $ 8$ by $8$ and he also has $4$ left over. How many comics does he have each?" In the next issue of the newspaper this solution is given: “Antonio has $60$ comics and José has $100$.” Analyze this solution and indicate what a mathematician would do with this problem.
For which real $a$ are there distinct reals $x$, $y$ such that $$\begin{cases} x = a - y^2 \\ y = a - x^2 \,\,\, ? \end {cases}$$
