Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The domain is the set of all x-values. We can find the domain by finding the left boundary of the graph (the furthest left x-value) and then the right boundary (the furthest right x value).
The furthest left x-value is -7. Notice it has a large open circle here that is not filled in. This means the function does not include -7 but includes numbers very close to it like-6.999999..... We sue use an inequality sign without an equal to to write -7. x >-7.
The furthest right x value is 9. It has a closed circle or "filled in" circle so we write with an equal to sign. .
We combine the two into .
There are two ways to do this but the way I prefer is to make one of the equations in terms of one variable and then 'plug this in' to the second equation. I will demonstrate
Look at equation 1,
this can quite easily be manipulated to show 
.
Then because there is a y in the second equation (and both equations are simultaneous) we can 'plug in' our new equation where y is in the second one
which can then be solved for x since there is only one variable 
and then with our x solution we can work out our y solution by using the equation we manipulated 
.
So the solution to these equations is x=-2 when y=6
