Which graph best represents the solution to the system of equations shown below? (5 points)

y = −2x + 14
y = 2x + 2

A: A coordinate grid is shown from negative 10 to positive 10 on the x axis and also on the y axis. Two lines are shown intersecting on the ordered pair 3, 8.

B: A coordinate grid is shown from negative 10 to positive 10 on the x axis and also on the y axis. Two lines are shown intersecting on ordered pair 8, 3.

C: A coordinate grid is shown from negative 10 to positive 10 on the x axis and also on the y axis. Two lines are shown intersecting on ordered pair negative 8, negative 3.

D: A coordinate grid is shown from negative 10 to positive 10 on the x axis and also on the y axis. Two lines are shown intersecting on ordered pair negative 3, 8.
