Answer:

f(4) = g(4) and f(0) = g(0)

Explanation:

In order for f(x) = g(x), the value of x must be the same in both functions:

f(4) = g(4) . . . corresponds to x=4

f(0) = g(0) . . . corresponds to x=0

The graph is not shown here, so we cannot say if these are the appropriate solutions. We can only say that the other choices are not.

f(x) = g(x) if ...

f(4) = g(4) and f(0) = g(0)

__

Something like f(0) = g(4) is useless for finding solutions to f(x) = g(x).
