graphs intersect at a single point. Suppose we consider these two functions as a system.
Based on the information shown,
(a) there is a single solution with multiplicity 2; it is an ordered pair of real numbers.
(b) there is a single solution with multiplicity 2; it is an ordered pair of pure
imaginary numbers.
(c) there is a single solution with multiplicity 2; it is an ordered pair of complex (but
not real) numbers.
(d) there are two solutions; one is an ordered pair of reals, and the other is an ordered
pair of pure imaginary numbers.
(e) there are two solutions; one is an ordered pair of reals, and the other is an ordered
pair of complex (but not real) numbers.


  1. Consider the following equation, which represents a function of the variable x:


y=x^2 + 3 x+ 1

We can write down ordered pairs such as (0,1) or (1,5) to show specific examples of this
function. In any such ordered pair, the second number represents a value of the
(a) codomain.
(b) dependent variable.
(c) bijection.
(d) inverse.
(e) essential domain.


  1. When we multiply a+jb by its conjugate, we get


(a)a^2 +b^2
(b)a^2 −b^2
