You can put this solution on YOUR website!
If y=x%5E2-2x%2B3 and y=x%5E2-x-2, then,
x%5E2-2x%2B3=x%5E2-x-2
x%5E2-x%5E2-2x%2B3=x%5E2-x%5E2-x-2
0-2x%2B3=0-x-2
-2x%2B3=-x-2
-2x%2Bx%2B3=-x%2Bx%2B2
-x%2B3=0%2B2=2
-x%2B3-3=2-3
-x%2B0=-1|
-x=-1
x=1
But, y=x%5E2-2x%2B3. So,
y=1%5E2-2%2A1%2B3=1-2%2B3=-1%2B3=2
Thus, x=1, and y=2,

Power up,
