From the problem, we two equations :
[tex]\begin{gathered} y=x^2+4 \\ y=2x+7 \end{gathered}[/tex]Since both equation are defined as y in terms of x, we can equate both equations.
[tex]\begin{gathered} y=y \\ x^2+4=2x+7^{} \end{gathered}[/tex]Simplify and solve for x :
[tex]\begin{gathered} x^2+4=2x+7 \\ x^2-2x+4-7=0 \\ x^2-2x-3=0 \end{gathered}[/tex]Factor completely :
[tex]\begin{gathered} x^2-2x-3=0 \\ (x-3)(x+1)=0 \end{gathered}[/tex]Equate both factors to 0 then solve for x :
x - 3 = 0
x = 3
x + 1 = 0
x = -1
We have two values of x, x = 3 and -1
Substitute x = 3 and -1 to any of the equation, let's say equation 2 :
For x = 3
y = 2x + 7
y = 2(3) + 7
y = 6 + 7
y = 13
One solution is (3, 13)
For x = -1
y = 2x + 7
y = 2(-1) + 7
y = -2 + 7
y = 5
The other solution is (-1, 5)
The answers are (3, 13) and (-1, 5)
