1.
2.
Since both are already in "y=" .... set them equal to each other

Move all parts to the left ... setting the equation equal to zero

combine like terms and put in descending order

Factor

Since both parts are identical ... we only need to work it once



Pulg x = 1 into the equations
and
and
and
and

Your one solution is
(1,6)
The graphs are a parabola and a line. Since there is only one solution, the point at which they meet is also the "minimum" or vertex of the parabola.
