Subtract x from both sides


Plug in


Foil


Subtract 9 from both sides


Combine like terms

Factor out 2x

or Set each factor equal to x

or Solve for x

So we have x values or

Lets find y with



So one solution is (0,3)


Lets find y with



So another solution is (3,0)


Here's some visual proof
graph of and

Here we can see that the intersections are (0,3) and (3,0). So this verifies our answer.
