Key Concepts
Here are the essential concepts you must grasp in order to answer the question correctly.
Graphing Equations
Graphing equations involves plotting points on a coordinate system to visualize the relationship between variables. For the given equations, x² + y² = 16 represents a circle centered at the origin with a radius of 4, while x - y = 4 is a linear equation representing a straight line. Understanding how to graph these shapes is essential for identifying their points of intersection.

Graphing Equations of Two Variables by Plotting Points
Points of Intersection
Points of intersection are the coordinates where two graphs meet on the coordinate plane. To find these points, one must solve the system of equations simultaneously. This involves substituting one equation into the other or using methods such as substitution or elimination to determine the values of x and y that satisfy both equations.

Verification of Solutions
Verification of solutions entails substituting the found points of intersection back into the original equations to confirm they satisfy both. This step is crucial to ensure that the identified points are indeed valid solutions to the equations. It reinforces the accuracy of the graphing and solving process, ensuring that the results are reliable.
