Which graph best represents the solution to the following pair of equations? (1 point)

y = −2x + 13
y = 2x − 3

A: A graph is plotted with values ranging from negative 10 to 10 on both x axis and y axis at increments of 1. Two lines having equations y is equal to negative 2 times x plus 13 and y is equal to 2 times x minus 3 are plotted. These 2 lines intersect at the ordered pair negative 4, negative 5.

B: A graph is plotted with values ranging from negative 10 to 10 on both x axis and y axis at increments of 1. Two lines having equations y is equal to negative 2 times x plus 13 and y is equal to 2 times x minus 3 are plotted. These 2 lines intersect at the ordered pair 4, 5.

C: A graph is plotted with values ranging from negative 10 to 10 on both x axis and y axis at increments of 1. Two lines having equations y is equal to negative 2 times x plus 13 and y is equal to 2 times x minus 3 are plotted. These 2 lines intersect at the ordered pair negative 4, 5.

D: A graph is plotted with values ranging from negative 10 to 10 on both x axis and y axis at increments of 1. Two lines having equations y is equal to negative 2x plus 13 and y is equal to 2x minus 3 are plotted. These 2 lines intersect at the ordered pair 4, negative 5.
