=============
Hi,

I have a system of two implicit equations, say f[x,y,z] =0 &&
g[x,y,z] =0 (think of z as a parameter) and I would like to plot the
solutions as 'y as a function of z'; that is, I don't car about the
value that x takes for a given z.


Is there a way to do it with Mathematica ? I tried using ContourPlot
but I couldn't find the way.

Any help would be very appreciated.


Best Regards

Victor
