Equation 1: x plus 5 y, equals 5. Equation 2: 2 x minus y, equals negative 4

Which of the following graphs in the xy-plane could be used to solve the system of equations above?

  1. A

    The answer choice presents the graph of two lines in the x y plane. The numbers negative 4 and 4 are indicated on each axis. One line slants upward and to the right. It crosses the x axis at negative 5, and crosses the y axis at 1. The other line slants downward and to the right. It crosses the y axis at 4, and crosses the x axis at 2. The two lines intersect above the x axis and to the right of the y axis.

  2. B

    The answer choice presents the graph of two lines in the x y plane. The numbers negative 4 and 4 are indicated on each axis. One line slants upward and to the right. It crosses the y axis at negative 4, and crosses the x axis at 4. The other line slants downward and to the right. It crosses the y axis at 1, and crosses the x axis at 1. The two lines intersect below the x axis and to the right of the y axis.

  3. C

    The answer choice presents the graph of two lines in the x y plane. The numbers negative 4 and 4 are indicated on each axis. One line slants upward and to the right. It crosses the x axis at negative 2, and crosses the y axis at 4. The other line slants downward and to the right. It crosses the y axis at 1, and crosses the x axis at 5. The two lines intersect above the x axis and to the left of the y axis.

  4. D

    The answer choice presents the graph of two lines in the x y plane. The numbers negative 4 and 4 are indicated on each axis. One line slants upward and to the right. It crosses the x axis at negative 2, and crosses the y axis at 4. The other line slants upward and to the right. It crosses the y axis at negative 1, and crosses the x axis at 5. The two lines intersect below the x axis and to the left of the y axis.
