For intersection of the two graphs,
$f(x)=g(x)$
So,
$2\cos\left(\frac{x}{2}\right)+3=4$
$2\cos\left(\frac{x}{2}\right)=1$
$\cos\left(\frac{x}{2}\right)=\frac{1}{2}$
Now,
$x\in [0,4\pi]$
So,
$\frac{x}{2}\in [0,2\pi]$
In the interval $[0,2\pi]$,
$\cos\theta=\frac{1}{2}$ has two solutions:
$\theta=\frac{\pi}{3},\frac{5\pi}{3}$
Here,
$\theta=\frac{x}{2}$
So,
$\frac{x}{2}=\frac{\pi}{3}$ or $\frac{x}{2}=\frac{5\pi}{3}$
Therefore,
$x=\frac{2\pi}{3}$ or $x=\frac{10\pi}{3}$
Hence, the number of points of intersection is $2$.
