Set the to equal:

x^2 - 4x+4 = 2x-4
 solve for X

subtract 2x from each side:
x^2 -6x + 4 = -4

subtract 4 from each side:

x^2 -6x = -8

add 8 to both sides:

x^2 -6x +8 = 0

factor the polynomial:

x = 4 and x = 2

using the line equation replace x with 2 and 4 and solve for y

y = 2(2) - 4 = 0
y = 2(4)-4 = 4

so the 2 points the line  crosses the curve is (2,0) and (4,4)

using those 2 points you can calculate the length:
 distance = sqrt((x2-x1)^2 +(y2-y1)^2

distance = sqrt( (4-2)^2 + (4-0)^2)

distance = sqrt (2^2 + 4^2)
 distance = sqrt (4+16)
= sqrt 20 
= 2 sqrt(5)  EXACT LENGTH

Jim runs 12 miles in 4 hours how many feet does he run per minute
hjlf

h= number of hours

m= number of miles

Formula: 4h=12m

(4 hours equals 12 miles)

Divide 4 on each side.

h= 3m

3 miles per hour.

Then, convert miles to feet. And hours to minute.

To do this simultaneously,

Convert miles to feet and hours to minutes.

There should be 3 "fractions" to multiply.

The first should be the original problem:

3miles/1 hour. (3 miles per hour).

The second should be 1 hour/60min. (1 hour per 60 min).

The third should be 5280 ft/1 mile. (5280 feet per mile).

The second and the third fractions are to convert miles to feet and the hours to minutes.
