No points in common to the two graphs.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3,-3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the options are (1, 1) (–1, 1) (2, 4) (3, –3)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is less tan or equal

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-1,1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And the answer is still none, as long as the problem is written the way it is. If you change the problem so that the second graph is "less than or equal to -1" instead of "greater than or equal 3", then you have an intersection at (-1, 1).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Then (-1, 1)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its less than or equal to 3 tho

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Still, the answer, from the selections, would be (-1, 1). It would also intersect at the origin, but that is not one of the choices, so you're ok.
