Explanation
Correct answer: 4.
A solution to a system of equations must satisfy each equation in the system. It follows that if is a solution to the system, the point lies on the graph in the xy-plane of each equation in the system. According to the graph, the point that lies on the graph of each equation in the system is . Therefore, the solution to the system is . It follows that the value of is .
