Which of the following graphs shows a pair of lines that represent the equations with a solution (−2, 5)? (5 points)

A.A coordinate grid is shown from negative 8 to positive 8 on the x axis and also on the y axis. A pair of lines is shown intersecting on ordered pair 2 units to the right and 5 units down.

B.A coordinate grid is shown from negative 8 to positive 8 on the x axis and also on the y axis. A pair of lines is shown intersecting on ordered pair 5 units to the right and 2 units down.

C.A coordinate grid is shown from negative 8 to positive 8 on the x axis and also on the y axis. A pair of lines is shown intersecting on ordered pair 5 places to the left and 2 units up.

D.A coordinate grid is shown from negative 8 to positive 8 on the x axis and also on the y axis. A pair of lines is shown intersecting on ordered pair 2 units to the left and 5 units up.

1 answer

The correct answer is A. The pair of lines intersect at the point (2, -5), which is the solution to the equations.
