Question
### Using Graphs of f(x) and g(x) to Solve Equations

#### Instructions
Use the graphs of \( f(x) \) and \( g(x) \) to determine all of the solutions of the equation \( f(x) = g(x) \). Approximate to the nearest integer and select all that apply.

##### Graph Description
The graphs of \( f(x) \) and \( g(x) \) are plotted on a coordinate plane. The x-axis ranges from -6 to 6, and the y-axis ranges from -30 to 30. 

- The graph of \( f(x) \) is a horizontal line fixed at \( y = 10 \).
- The graph of \( g(x) \) is a curve that intersects the horizontal line \( y = 10 \) at three points.

##### Intersection Points
To solve the equation \( f(x) = g(x) \), find where the graph of \( g(x) \) intersects the line \( y = 10 \).

By approximating the x-coordinates of these intersection points to the nearest integer, we have the following possible solutions:

1. \( x \approx -4 \)
2. \( x \approx 0 \)
3. \( x \approx 3 \)

#### Select the Nearest Integers
Based on the above intersections, select the appropriate integers from the given options:

- [ ] \( x = 12 \)
- [ ] \( x = 25 \)
- [ ] \( x = 10 \)
- [x] \( x = -2 \) (Corresponds to \( f(-2) = g(-2) \))
- [x] \( x = 3 \) 
- [ ] \( x = 5 \)
- [ ] \( x = -3 \)
- [x] \( x = 0 \)

Correct answers: \( x = -2 \), \( x = 0 \), and \( x = 3 \).
