What is the best way - without soldering - to connect a 3/4" rigid copper
pipe to 3/4" PVC 40?

If there is no good way, what do I need to buy to make a solder joint?

Thank you

Half a roll of duct tape should do the job for a couple weeks or so...
Just make sure the pipes are dry when you tape them together.
Be sure to secure the pipes to the floor joists or wall studs with
bungie cords.

Duct tape and bungie cords are all you will ever need to repair
everything.
