Translate the equation into a counting task: each distinct point where the graphs share an output contributes one solution input. Sweep across the full graph in one direction and tally only actual intersections. Turning points, nearby segments, and the two graphs themselves are not extra solutions, so this scan prevents both missed crossings and overcounting.
