Help please...
The graphs of f(x) and g(x) are shown below:

graph of function f of x equals x squared minus x minus 12. Graph of function g of x equals negative 2.5 times x minus 2

What are the solutions to the equation f(x) = g(x)?

x = −3, 4
x = −4, 2.5
x = −0.8, 2.5
x = 8, −8

f(x) = x^2 - 12
g(x) = -2.5x - 2

You are going to graph both of these equations and find the intercept of each function.

You can also solve this algebraically by setting both functions equal to each other and solving for x. 
You will need to use the quadratic formula when solving this function algebraically.

Unfortunately, I have very limited information on this lol I really don't know what to do.

sunnnystrong · Answer

Do you happen to have a calculator capable of graphing these functions and than are you able to calculator the two points where they intersect?
