A student says, "The x-coordinate of the intersection point is a solution to f⁡(x)=g⁡(x) only because these two graphs happen to be straight lines." Is the student correct?

A
No, this only works when both slopes are positive.
B
No, any intersection point solves f of x is equal to g of x .
C
Yes, but only when the intersection point is above the x -axis.
D
Yes, this only works for linear functions.
