One can also solve this by calculation:
y=2x-9
y=-2x-1
-
Rearrange either equation to find x. I'll use the first:
y=2x-9
2x = y+9
x = (y+9)/2
Now use this value of x in the second equation:
y = -2x-1
y =-2((y+9)/2)-1
y = (-2y-18)/2)-1
y = -y -9 - 1
2y = -10
y = -5
Now use -5 for y in the rearranged equation:
y = -2x-1
-5 = -2x-1
-2x = -4
x = 2
Solution is (2,-5)
But the question wants a graph solution, which is also fun when you use DESMOS.

Answer:
the linearization is y = 1/4x +5/4
the linearization will produce <em>overestimates</em>
the values computed from this linearization are ...
f(3.98) ≈ 2.245
f(4.05) ≈ 2.2625
Step-by-step explanation:
Apparently, you have ...
from which you have correctly determined that ...
so that f(3) = 2 and f'(3) = 1/4. Putting these values into the point-slope form of the equation of a line, we get the linearization ...
g(x) = (1/4)(x -3) +2
g(x) = (1/4)x +5/4
__
The values from this linearization will be overestimates, as the curve f(x) is concave downward everywhere. The tangent (linearization) is necessarily above the curve everywhere.
__
At the given values, we find ...
g(3.98) = 2.245
g(4.05) = 2.2625
