Hint 3 of 3
Pick the picture that shows every line from the first sheet AND every line from the second.
Show solution
Approach: lay the see-through sheets on top of each other and keep every line
- Because both sheets are see-through, the answer must show every line from each one — nothing disappears.
- The first sheet has a line going straight up and a line going to the right; the second sheet adds a line slanting up to the right.
- Putting all of those lines together, with none missing and none extra, gives the picture in option D.
