Answer

x2−3x−4=0x^2 - 3x - 4 = 0

Step-by-step solution

2 steps
  1. Set the two equations equal to each other to find the points of intersection.

    The given equations are:

    y=6+x−x2y = 6 + x - x^2 y=2−2xy = 2 - 2x

    Equating the expressions for yy:

    6+x−x2=2−2x6 + x - x^2 = 2 - 2x
  2. Rearrange the equation into the standard quadratic form ax2+bx+c=0ax^2 + bx + c = 0.

    Add x2x^2 to both sides:

    6+x=2−2x+x26 + x = 2 - 2x + x^2

    Subtract xx from both sides:

    6=2−3x+x26 = 2 - 3x + x^2

    Subtract 6 from both sides:

    0=x2−3x−40 = x^2 - 3x - 4

    The simplified quadratic equation is:

    x2−3x−4=0x^2 - 3x - 4 = 0
