The graph of the equation y=2x−10

is shown. What statement is true about every point on the graph?

On a coordinate plane, a line has positive slope.
CLEAR CHECK

(A) If you double the x
-coordinate and then subtract 10
, you get the y
-coordinate.

(B) The y
-coordinate is 10
less than the x
-coordinate.

(C) The x
-coordinate and y
-coordinate have the same sign.

(D)The x
-coordinate is greater than the y
-coordinate.

The statement (A) "If you double the x-coordinate and then subtract 10, you get the y-coordinate" is true for every point on the graph.

Therefore, the correct answer is (A) If you double the x-coordinate and then subtract 10, you get the y-coordinate.
