To find the intersection point of the two lines, we need to solve the system of equations:
y = 4x - 10
y = -2x + 8
We can set the equations equal to each other:
4x - 10 = -2x + 8
Combining like terms:
6x = 18
Dividing both sides by 6:
x = 3
Now we can substitute this value of x back into either equation to find the corresponding value of y. Let's use the first equation:
y = 4(3) - 10
y = 12 - 10
y = 2
So the intersection point of these two lines is (3, 2).
