To find the solution for the system of equations given in the table, we need to identify the point where the two equations intersect, which means both equations yield the same y-value for a given x-value.

The two equations given are:

  1. \( y = x + 6 \)
  2. \( y = 2x + 3 \)

We can look at the table and find where the y-values of both equations are equal.

From the table:

  • For \( x = 0 \):
    • \( y = x + 6 = 6 \)
    • \( y = 2x + 3 = 3 \)
  • For \( x = 1 \):
    • \( y = x + 6 = 7 \)
    • \( y = 2x + 3 = 5 \)
  • For \( x = 2 \):
    • \( y = x + 6 = 8 \)
    • \( y = 2x + 3 = 7 \)
  • For \( x = 3 \):
    • \( y = x + 6 = 9 \)
    • \( y = 2x + 3 = 9 \) (this is where they are equal)
  • For \( x = 4 \):
    • \( y = x + 6 = 10 \)
    • \( y = 2x + 3 = 11 \)

At \( x = 3 \), both equations yield \( y = 9 \). Therefore, the solution to the system of equations is:

\((3, 9)\)
