Constructing a transformation satisfying the given properties
Construct a transformation which maps the plane into the plane itself , and the curve y=x2 onto the horizontal axis, and the line y=3 onto the vertical axis.
I need to solve the set of equations
T(x,x2)=(x,0)
T(x,3)=(0,y)
but couldn't. Any hints?

Let the transformation be f(x,y)=(f1(x,y),f2(x,y)).
The line y=3 is mapped to x=0 so f1(x,3)=0 for all x. This means that we can set f1(x,y)=M1(y3) for a some constant M1. Similarly, we can set f2(x,y)=M2(x2y).
Then we have f(x,y)=(M1(y3),M2(x2y)).
