A) For all x > 0 the graph will be higher. B) For all x > 0 the graph will be lower. C) For all x the graph will be higher. D) For all x the graph will be lower.

What you can do for this case is to evaluate some points in both functions to realize the behavior:
x 5x 2x
-2 -10 -4
-1 -5 -2
0 0 0
1 5 2
2 10 4
We have then:
For all x> 0 the graph will be higher
answer:
A) For all x> 0 the graph will be higher.
