Answer: Choice B) (2,0)
======================================
Set the first piece equal to zero and solve for x
x^2 - 4 = 0
x^2 = 4
x = sqrt(4) or x = -sqrt(4)
x = 2 or x = -2
Keep in mind that the first piece y = x^2-4 is only graphed when x = 2 or larger, so we ignore x = -2. This is one x intercept, but there may be more. Let's check the other graph to see what we get.

Set the second piece equal to zero and solve for x
x-2 = 0
x-2+2 = 0+2
x = 2
We get the same result as above in the prior section. Because of this, the two pieces connect at this junction point.
The x intercept x = 2 leads to the location (2,0). The x intercept always occurs when y = 0.
The graph below shows this.
side note: the red piece y = x^2 - 4 looks linear, but it's actually not a straight line. It's just a really stretched out curve.
Answer:
y = x - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m =
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 22, - 14) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 18, - 12)
m = =
=
, thus
y = x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation
Using (- 18, - 12) , then
- 12 = - 9 + c ⇒ c = - 12 + 9 = - 3
y = x - 3 ← equation of line
