\bf x^2=2x+4\implies \begin{cases} y=x^2 \\\\ y=2x+4 \end{cases}\implies y=y

Answer:

Thus, our system of equation becomes,


x^2-y=0 and
y-2x=4

Explanation:

Given equation :
x^2=2x+4

We have to set up the given equation as a system of equations.

We can set an equation as a system of equations by placing its both side equal to a single variable term.

Consider the given equation
x^2=2x+4.

since, the given equation
x^2=2x+4 has two sides right side and left side , let put them equal to a same variable y ,

then we get,


x^2=y and
2x+4=y

Thus, our system of equation becomes,


x^2-y=0 and
y-2x=4
