Question

The point of intersection to the line y = -2x + 5 and y = x - 4 is

Answer 1

To find the point of intersection, we can set the two equations equal to each other:

-2x + 5 = x - 4

Simplifying the equation, we get:

-3x = -9

Dividing both sides by -3, we get:

x = 3

Substituting this value of x into either equation, we can find the value of y:

y = (3) - 4 = -1

Therefore, the point of intersection is (3, -1).
