Math Problem Statement

What is the solution to the system of equations based on the graph provided?

Solution

The image you provided contains a system of equations presented as a graph. The question asks for the solution to this system.

Let's interpret the graph and solve the system. The solution to a system of equations, when represented graphically, is the point where the two lines intersect.

Looking at the graph:

  • One line appears to have a slope of approximately 1, and it intersects the x-axis at -2 and the y-axis at 2.
  • The other line appears to be steeper with a negative slope, and it crosses the y-axis at -2 and the x-axis around -3.

By observing the intersection point on the graph, it appears the solution to this system is at the coordinates (-2, 2).

Thus, the answer is:

A. (-2, 2)

Tip: When graphing systems of equations, always ensure both lines are plotted accurately and carefully check where they intersect.
