A coordinate plane with 4 quadrants shows x and y axes ranging from negative 10 to 10 in unit increments. Two parallel lines are plotted on the plane. A dotted upward slanting line with arrows at both ends passes through the points left parenthesis negative 3 comma 0 right parenthesis and left parenthesis 0 comma 6 right parenthesis. A solid upward slanting line with arrows at both ends, parallel to the dotted line, passes through origin.

The correct graph that shows that the linear system −2x+y=6 and 4x−2y=−12 has an infinite number of solutions is the one described below:

"A coordinate plane with 4 quadrants shows x and y axes ranging from negative 10 to 10 in unit increments. Two intersecting lines are plotted on the plane. A solid upward slanting line with arrows at both ends passes through the points (−3, 0) and (0, 6). A dotted upward slanting line passes through the points (0, 6) and (1, 7)."
