I don’t have the image mc014-1.jpg, so I can’t pick which graph matches it. Could you either paste the equation here or upload the image (or the list of graph choices)?
If you want to check/choose the correct graph yourself, here’s how to do it:
- Rewrite the equation as two functions: y = (left side) and y = (right side). The x-values where those two graphs intersect are the solutions.
- Or rewrite as y = (left side) − (right side) and graph that. The x-intercepts (where y = 0) are the solutions.
- To confirm, substitute the x-values from the intersection into the original equation.
Example: for x^2 − 4 = 0, graph y = x^2 − 4; the graph crosses the x-axis at x = −2 and x = 2, so those are the solutions.
Send the equation or the graph choices and I’ll point out which graph Jalen should use.
