(x,y) = (-1/2, -2 1/2) or (2,5)(x,y)=(12,212)or(2,5)

Explanation:

If
[1]color(white)("XXX")y = 2x^2-3XXXy=2x23
and
[2]color(white)("XXX")y=3x-1XXXy=3x1
then
[3]color(white)("XXX")2x^2-3=3x-1XXX2x23=3x1

Simplifying
[4]color(white)("XXX")2x^2-3x-2=0XXX2x23x2=0
Factoring
[5]color(white)("XXX")(2x+1)(x-2)=0XXX(2x+1)(x2)=0

[6]color(white)("XXX")x=-1/2color(white)("XXX")or [7]color(white)("XXX")x=2XXXx=12XXXor[7]XXXx=2

{: (color(white)("XXX"),x=-1/2,color(white)("XXXXXXX"),x=2), (color(white)("XXX"),y=2x^2-3,color(white)("XXXXXXX"),y=2x^2-3), (color(white)("XXX"),color(white)("X")=1/2-3,color(white)("XXXXXXX"),color(white)("X")=8-3), (color(white)("XXX"),color(white)("X")=-2 1/2,color(white)("XXXXXXX"),color(white)("X")=5) :}
