Question

A parabola and a dotted straight line are drawn on a coordinate plane. The x-axis ranges from negative 5 to 10 in one-unit increments and the y-axis ranges from 0 to 15 in one-unit increments.

The graph of g(x)
and f(x)
is shown. What is the smaller solution to g(x)=f(x)
?

Answer 1

To answer the question regarding the smaller solution to \( g(x) = f(x) \), you would typically look for the x-coordinate(s) where the parabolas (or curves) intersect with the dotted straight line on the provided graph.

Since I don't have actual access to the image, I can't directly analyze or visualize it. However, if you look at the points where the two graphs intersect, the smaller value of those x-coordinates will be the answer.

If you have the numerical coordinates or could describe the intersections, I would be able to assist you further. From the options given (13, 6, 1, 3), determine which of these corresponds to the smaller x-coordinate intersection point of the two graphs.
