Find the points of intersection for the following pair of curves.
y=½x³+x²+12
y=9x²-(59/2)x+12
Put answer in ordered pairs. I've been working on this problem forever and can't figure it out. Please help.

Hi taylor,
Nice to see you here. The points of intersection are:
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.
Always satisfy the Prime Directive of getting the right answer above all else.
