Answer:
B. (see attached)
Step-by-step explanation:
All the answers agree that the function is x² for x < 1. Where they disagree is in the slope and y-intercept of the linear portion for x > 1.
The line has a slope that is less than 1 unit of rise for 1 unit of run, so will not be selections A or C, which have slopes of 3.
The y-intercept is clearly positive if we extend the line to the left until it reaches the y-axis. This eliminates selection D from consideration, leaving only selection B.
It is opposite of what the equation is saying. Like if you had to add you would subtract or if you multiply you would divide.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 3x - 5
6x + 3y = 15
Substitute the first equation into the second
6x + 3(3x - 5) = 15
6x + 9x - 15 = 15
15x = 30
x = 2
Then use the answer in the first equation and solve
y = 3(2) - 5
y = 6 - 5
y = 1
