Respuesta :

The answer to this question is a) y = x^2 - 5 and y = -x + 1.

If you look at the points, it is easy to find the answer based on the x and y intercepts. Hope this helps :)

Answer:

Option A. y = x² - 5

                y = -x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two equations in this system one of a parabola and second one of a straight line.

Since parent function of a parabola f(x) = x² has shifting of (-5) downwards on y axis so equation of the parabola will be y = x² - 5

and other one is a straight line passing through two points (2, -1) and (-3, 4)

Therefore slope of the line will be = [tex]\frac{y-y'}{x-x'}=\frac{4+1}{-3-2}[/tex]

Slope = (-1) and y intercept = 1

Therefor equation of the line is y = -x +1
