To locate the solution of the two linear graphs on the coordinate plane, you would find the point where the two lines cross; (3, 9).

To get exactly two or three solutions to this linear system, you could make the lines parallel to each other.

The solution to this system could possibly have the meaning that the point showing after 3 weeks, the plant was 9 feet tall.

There is no way to have 2 linear graphs with 2 or 3 intersecting points.

Note: The last statement about curving the lines around so that they cross multiple times is not a correct option for this question.
