1. **State the problem:** We are given two systems of equations and asked to graph them and choose the correct graph.
The first system is:
$$c = 0.5n + 1.5$$
$$c = 10$$
The second system is:
$$c = 0.5n - 1$$
$$c = 10$$
2. **Analyze the first system:**
- The first equation is a line with slope $0.5$ and y-intercept $1.5$.
- The second equation is a horizontal line where $c = 10$.
3. **Find points for the first line:**
- When $n=0$, $c = 0.5(0) + 1.5 = 1.5$.
- When $n=20$, $c = 0.5(20) + 1.5 = 10 + 1.5 = 11.5$.
So the first line passes through points $(0,1.5)$ and $(20,11.5)$.
4. **Analyze the second system:**
- The first equation is a line with slope $0.5$ and y-intercept $-1$.
- The second equation is again a horizontal line where $c = 10$.
5. **Find points for the second line:**
- When $n=0$, $c = 0.5(0) - 1 = -1$.
- When $n=20$, $c = 0.5(20) - 1 = 10 - 1 = 9$.
6. **Check the horizontal line $c=10$:**
- This line passes through points $(0,10)$ and $(20,10)$.
7. **Compare with the options:**
- Option A shows one line passing through $(0,1.5)$ and $(20,11.5)$ and the other line passing through $(0,10)$ and $(20,10)$.
- This matches the first system.
- Option B shows one line passing through $(0,1.5)$ and $(20,11.5)$ and the other line passing through $(0,0)$ and $(20,10)$, which does not match the horizontal line $c=10$.
- Options C and D do not match the points from either system.
**Final answer:** The correct graph is option A.
