Answer:

  • A. x = -2
  • B. (-2, -3), (-3, -1)
  • C. x = 0

Explanation:

Part A. The solution is represented by the point at which the graphs intersect: (-2, -3). The x-value that makes p(x) = f(x) is x = -2.

___

Part B. The point found in Part A is one solution to f(x). The graph shows the line has a slope of -2, so another point will be 1 to the left and 2 up: (-3, -1). So, two solutions are ...

... (-2, -3) and (-3, -1)

___

Part C. The graphs of p(x) and g(x) intersect at the point (0, 2). This means

... p(0) = g(0) = 2

So, x = 0 is the solution to the equation p(x) = g(x).
