From the line, x=y+1x=y+1. From the parabola, x=(y−1)24−1x=\frac{(y-1)^2}{4}-1. Setting them equal: y+1=(y−1)24−1⇒4y+4=(y−1)2−4⇒(y−1)2−4y−8=0⇒y2−6y−7=0⇒(y−7)(y+1)=0⇒y=7 or y=−1y+1 = \frac{(y-1)^2}{4}-1 \Rightarrow 4y+4=(y-1)^2-4 \Rightarrow (y-1)^2-4y-8=0 \Rightarrow y^2-6y-7=0 \Rightarrow (y-7)(y+1)=0 \Rightarrow y=7 \text{ or } y=-1. Between these, the line's xx-value exceeds the parabola's xx-value (checked at y=3y=3: line gives 44, parabola gives 00). So …
