Answer:
D. (–3, –6) and (5, 10)
Step-by-step explanation:
The system has equations:
...(1)
and
...(2)
Equate both equations;
Rewrite in standard form:
We factor to obtain:
By the zero product principle;
When x=-3, y=2(-3)=-6
This yields the ordered pair (-3,-6).
When x=5, y=2(5)=10
This yields the ordered pair (5,10).
The correct choice is D.
