Question 3 • AZ-Common Core Algebra II A
The solutions are the x-values that make the two expressions equal, so they are the x-coordinates where the graphs intersect. Setting the expressions equal gives x² − 2x − 4 = −3x + 9, or x² + x − 13 = 0. Thus the correct choice is “the x-coordinates of the intersection points.”
