You are asked to do this problem by graphing, which would be hard to do over the Internet unless you can do your drawing on paper and share the resulting image by uploading it to Brainly.
If this were homework or a test, you'd get full credit only if you follow the directions given.
If <span>The points(0,2) and (4,-10) lie on the same line, their slope is m = (2+10)/(-4), or m =-3. Thus, the equation of this line is y-2 = -3x, or y = -3x + 2.
If </span><span>points (-5,-3) and (2,11) lie on another line, the slope of this line is:
m = 14/7 = 2. Thus, the equation of the line is y-11 = 2(x-2), or y = 11+2x -4, or y = 2x + 7.
Where do the 2 lines intersect? Set the 2 equations equal to one another and solve for x:
</span>y = -3x + 2 = y = 2x + 7. Then 5x = 5, and x=1.
Subst. 1 for x in y = 2x + 7, we get y = 2(1) + 7 = 9.
That results in the point of intersection (2,9).
Doing this problem by graphing, on a calculator, produces a different result: (-1,5), which matches D.
I'd suggest you find and graph both lines yourself to verify this. If you want, see whether you can find the mistake in my calculations.

Answer:
Cross multiplication is the method used to determine whether or not a proportion is true.
Explanation:
If you know one ratio in a proportion, you can use that information to find values in the other equivalent ratio.
Cross multiplication is the method used to determine whether or not a proportion is TRUE.
For example, if a bowl of fruit contains 10 oranges and 8 lemons, then the ratio of oranges to lemons is 10 is to 8 (that is, 10 : 8 ), which is equivalent to the ratio 5:4).
Answer:
D.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to eliminate, the numbers must eliminate. If the second equation is multiplied by 3, then the 3 and the -3 can be eliminated. Since it is multiple choice, we can plug in x = 12 and y = 10 to see if they are correct. 12 + 30 = 42 and 24 - 10 = 14, so D is correct.
