To solve the equation y = x^2 - 3x - 20 using systems, you can set up a system of equations by substituting y with x^2 - 3x - 20. This gives you the equation x^2 - 3x - 20 = 0. You can then solve this quadratic equation using factoring, the quadratic formula, or completing the square to find the values of x. Once you have the values of x, you can substitute them back into the original equation to find the corresponding values of y.

Solve using the quadratic formula
You cant solve it unless it is an equation. To be an equation it must have an equals sign.
Solve, using the Rule of 72 rate = 4%, years = 18, fv=$8,000. Solve for PV. Formula: PV = $1/(1+r) t PV = $8000/(1+.04) 18 PV = $8000/2.0258 3949.03 = $8000/2.20258

Since the second equation is already solved for "y", you can replace "y" by "9" in the other equation. Then solve the new equation for "x".
