Math Problem Statement

What ordered pairs are the solutions of the system of equations shown in the graph?

Solution

The graph shows a system of two equations, one represented by a parabola and the other by a line. The solution to the system of equations is found at the points where the line intersects the parabola, as these are the points where both equations have the same (x,y)(x, y) values.

From the graph, we can observe that the line intersects the parabola at two points:

  1. The first intersection appears to be at x=0x = 0 and y=4y = 4, giving the ordered pair (0,4)(0, 4).
  2. The second intersection appears to be at x=4x = 4 and y=6y = 6, giving the ordered pair (4,6)(4, 6).

Thus, the solutions to the system are the ordered pairs: (0,4)and(4,6)(0, 4) \quad \text{and} \quad (4, 6)
