The graph of a function and that of its inverse should be always symmetric around the line y = x (goes at 45 degrees and crosses the origin of coordinates).

Therefore any intersection of the graphs must lie on the line y = x, which forces the x value of the intersection point to be the same as the y-value.

The only option shown where x and y have the same numerical value is the third listed option : (2,2)

The solution to the system of equation below is (−2, −1). 2x − 3y = −1 11x − 9y = −13 When the first equation is multiplied by −

Natali [406]

We are given with two equations 2x − 3y = −1 and <span>11x − 9y = −13. The problem says that when the first equation is multiplied by -3 which results to -6x + 9y = 3, the sum of the resulting equation and the second one is equal to 5x = -10. We verify this: -6x + 11x = 5x while -9 y and 9 y cancels out. 3+-13 equals -10. Hence the total is really 5x = - 10.</span>
