Answer:
A. (1, -1)
B. (1, -1), (2, 0)
C. x = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
A graph is a plot of all the points that are solutions to an equation.
<u>Part A</u>:
A point will be a solution to two equations if it is a point of intersection of their graphs. The one point that is a solution to both p(x) and g(x) is the one point where their graphs intersect: the red and blue lines cross at (1, -1).
__
<u>Part B</u>:
<em>Any other point on the graph p(x)</em> will be another solution of it. One that is near to the point of intersection with g(x) is the point where p(x) crosses the x-axis: (2, 0). Of course, the solution listed in Part A is also a solution to p(x).
__
<u>Part C</u>:
The point where the graph of g(x) crosses the graph of f(x) is (0, 3). The x-value that makes g(x) = f(x) is x=0. That is the solution to this equation. (We don't really care what the values of f(0) and g(0) are--just that they are equal.)

Answer:
Plates are 2.80 Dollars and cups are 1.40 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
Cups = c
Plates = p
6p + 5c = 23.80 ==> multiply by 6 ==> 36p + 30c = 142.80
7p + 6c = 28.00 ==> multiply by 5 ==> 35p + 30c = 140.00
Now use algebra to have the 30c be on one side and the rest on the other:
36p + 30c = 142.80 | -36p
30c = 142.80 - 36p
35p + 30c = 140.00 | -35p
30c = 140.00 - 35p
Now set them equal to each other about the 30c:
142.80 - 36p = 140.00 - 35p
Use algebra to solve for p:
142.80 - 36p = 140.00 - 35p | +36p
142.80 = 140.00 + p | - 140
2.80 = p
Go back to one of the "30c" equations and plug in the value for p:
30c = 140 - 35p
30c = 140 - 35(2.80)
30c = 140 - 98
30c = 42 | /30
c = 42/30
c = 1.4
