Question

which is the apparent solution set of the system of equations graphed on the grid?
options:
a. {(-0.25,0), (4.25,0)}
b. {(1,-4), (4,-1)}
c. {(0,-5), (5,0)}
d. {(0,-1), (2,-5)}

Explanation:

Step1: Identify intersection points

Solutions are where the two graphs cross.

Step2: Match to options

Check which option's points are the intersection coordinates of the line and parabola. The points (1,-4) and (4,-1) are the visible crossing points of the two graphs.

Answer:

B. {(1,-4), (4,-1)}
