Question 50242: I need help solving the following nonlinear system of equation:
y = x^2
3x = y +2

Answer by stanbon(75887)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
y = x^2
3x = y +2
--------------------
Substitute to get:
3x=x^2+2
x^2-3x+2=0
(x-2)(x-1)=0
x=2 or x=1
If x=2 then y= 4
If x=1 then y=1
