Let's match the descriptions with the correct statements based on the provided options:

  1. How would you locate the solution of the two linear graphs on the coordinate plane?
    Correct answer: Find the point where the two lines cross; (3, 9)

  2. How could you get exactly two or three solutions to this linear system?
    Correct answer: Curving the lines around so that they cross multiple times

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