Find the Cartesian equation:

[ a(p+q) , apq ] and pq =-4

I got y = -4a, but answer says y = -4

Ugh how about this one, tried many times and failed -,-.

Find Cartesian equation of:

x= p+q

y= p^2 + q^2 Given that p^2 + q^2+ 6pq=0

I am tired and so it could be wrong, and plus the working is not as good as it could have been. I just hope you can follow it ^.^

I understand :D but the answer you got to is apparently wrong, it's x^2 = 2/3 y :/ But thanks for trying to answer my question :)
