PLEASE SELECT THE CORRECT OPTION

Two systems of equations are shown below:

System A
System B
6x + y = 2
2x − 3y = −10
−x − y = −3
−x − y = −3


Which of the following statements correct about the two systems of equations? 

A
The value of x for System B will be 4 less than the value of x for System A because the coefficient of x in the first equation of System B is 4 less than the coefficient of x in the first equation of System A.
B
They will have the same solution because the first equations of both the systems have the same graph.
C
They will have the same solution because the first equation of System B is obtained by adding the first equation of System A to 4 times the second equation of System A.
D
The value of x for System A will be equal to the value of y for System B because the first equation of System B is obtained by adding −4 to the first equation of System A and the second equations are identical.
