Lets take   (-4) - (-6) 
             = -4 + 6     (here we changed the sign because in integers when you are                                                     subtracting <span>an integer, we put its opposite..thats the rule .)
            =. -4 + 6 = 2

so here we got the answer as 2 .....this shows that </span>your answer will be less than the integer you started with ....this is because here in subtraction we will first change the sign and then follow the same rules of addition ...so here if both the numbers have opposite signs then we subtract and put the greater number sign .....

Y = x² - 4x + 4
y = 2x - 4

Find intersection of L and C:
x² - 4x + 4 = 2x - 4
x² - 6x + 8 = 0
<span> (x - 2)(x - 4) = 0
x = 2 or x = 4

When x = 2 , y = 2(2) - 4 = 0
When x = 4, y = 2(4) - 4 = 4

Points of intersection = A(2, 0) and B(4, 4)

Find the length of AB:

</span>&#10;\text {Length of AB}=  \sqrt{(4-0)^2 + (4-2)^2} =  \sqrt{16 + 4} = \sqrt{20}  = 4.47 \text{ units}
<span>
Answer: 4.47 units
