d + e = 1-d +e = -5 If you cross out d and -d, you will have... e = 1e = -5 ...left. From there, you would add the e's together to give you e^2 = -4 you would now just divide both sides by 2 and your answer should be e = -2 You then proceed to your answer choices and which ever one has the e-intercept as -2, is your final answer. Your answer is B I hope this helped! :D
