Please help me with this question! I don't understand what they're asking.
Answers include... x=-2 x=-1 x=1 x=5
The solution is where the 2 equations intercept
There is two places, though.
Yes, like the last problem you did. This time you are given the graphs and asked the solutions. That would be the x-values of the points of intersection. Yes, there are two so read both of them off the graph. Let us know what you get.
True, but from your answer choices I only see one solution from your choices.
Remember: x=any value is a vertical line from that point
y=any value is a horizontal line from that point on the y axis
I get -1.9 and 1.6
Hmm, -1.9 looks like -2 to me
So, the closest answer would be -2.
Yep
I thought so, too. I put it on my graphing calculator and it showed -1.9.
x=-1 x=1 x=5 ^^^^ not even close to the intersections
-2 would be a pretty good choice
I submitted x=-2 as the answer and it was correct. Thank you!
our pleasure.
