The image you uploaded depicts a graph involving the following curves:

1. Parabola: $y = x^2$ (blue curve).
2. Two lines:
   • Red line $y = 8 - 2x$,
   • Another red line $y = \frac{2x}{3} + \frac{16}{3}$.

Additionally, the graph shows three points of intersection marked:

• $(-2, 4)$,
• $(1, 6)$,
• $(2, 4)$.

The region enclosed between the parabola and the lines is shaded in blue.

Key observations:

• The blue shaded region represents the area bounded between the parabola and the two straight lines.
• The points $(-2, 4)$, $(1, 6)$, and $(2, 4)$ are intersection points between the parabola and the lines.

Would you like to calculate the area of the shaded region or analyze the intersection points in more detail? Let me know if you want to dive into any specific part of this graph.

Questions to explore:

1. How do you find the area between two curves?
2. How do you compute the intersection points of a line and a parabola?
3. What method can be used to confirm these intersection points algebraically?
4. How does the slope of the line affect the intersection with a parabola?
5. How would the area change if the lines were steeper or had different slopes?

Tip:

When finding areas between curves, integrating the difference between the upper and lower functions over their
