Question

A pair of linear equations is shown below:

Answer 1

Answer:

A. the first line has y-intercept = 5 and slope = -3,

and the second line has y-intercept = 2 and slope = 1.

Explanation:

The given pair of lines are as follows,

$y=-3x+5$

$y=x+2$

The general slope-intercept form of straight line is,

$y=mx+c$

where,

m = slope of the line

c = y-intercept

Comparing this with the line equations,

slope of 1st line = -3, y-intercept of 1st line = 5

slope of 2nd line = 1, y-intercept of 2nd line = 2

*The point of intersection is attached below.

Answer 2

Simple, it's A.

y=-3x+5
and
y=x+2

The slope for the first line is m=-3 and y-intercept y=5

The slope for the second line is m=1 and y-intercept y=2

The only logical answer is A. Thus, your answer.
