Answer:

D

Explanation:

A and D are the only ones that cover (3, 3), as then x = 3 and y = 3 leads to an 0 = 0 expression (which is true).

the other two with x+3 and y+3 lead to clearly unequal expressions.

now we use (6, 5) to find the right answer between A and D.

A is then

5-3 = 3/2 × (6-3)

2 = 3×3/2 = 9/2

which is clearly unequal.

D is then

5-3 = 2/3 × (6-3)

2 = 2×3/3 = 2

this is true, so, D is correct
