Answer:

The solution is (3/8, -7/8).

Step-by-step explanation:

y = −5x + 1

y = 3x − 2

Since  the 2 expressions in x are both equal to y :

−5x + 1  = 3x - 2

-5x - 3x = -2 - 1

-8x = -3

x = 3/8.

So y = 3x - 2

= 3(3/8) - 2

= 9/8 - 2 = -7/8.

The vertex is the high point of the curve, (2, 1). The vertex form of the equation for a parabola is
.. y = a*(x -h)^2 +k . . . . . . . for vertex = (h, k)

Using the vertex coordinates we read from the graph, the equation is
.. y = a*(x -2)^2 +1

We need to find the value of "a". We can do that by using any (x, y) value that we know (other than the vertex), for example (1, 0).
.. 0 = a*(1 -2)^2 +1
.. 0 = a*1 +1
.. -1 = a

Now we know the equation is
.. y = -(x -2)^2 +1

_____
If we like, we can expand it to
.. y = -(x^2 -4x +4) +1
.. y = -x^2 +4x -3

=========
An alternative approach would be to make use of the zeros. You can read the x-intercepts from the graph as x=1 and x=3. Then you can write the equation as
.. y = a*(x -1)*(x -3)
Once again, you need to find the value of "a" using some other point on the graph. The vertex (x, y) = (2, 1) is one such point. Subsituting those values, we get
.. 1 = a*(2 -1)*(2 -3) = a*1*-1 = -a
.. -1 = a
Then the equation of the graph can be written as
.. y = -(x -1)(x -3)
In expanded form, this is
.. y = -(x^2 -4x +3)
.. y = -x^2 +4x -3 . . . . . . same as above
