A coordinate plane with four quadrants shows the x- and y-axes ranging from negative 5 to 5 in increments of 1. A solid line and a dotted line intersect each other. The equation of the solid line is x minus 5 y equals 3. The equation of the dotted line is 3 x minus 2 y equals negative 4. The intersection of both lines is shown at negative 2 on the x-axis and negative 1 on the y-axis in quadrant 3.

The intersection point is (3, 2).

Apologies for the mistake. Let's solve the system of equations to find the correct intersection point.

Given the equations:

1) x - 5y = 3
2) 3x - 2y = -4

To find the solution, we can use the method of substitution or elimination. Let's use the elimination method:

Multiplying equation 1) by 3 and equation 2) by 5 to eliminate the coefficients of x:

3(x - 5y) = 3 * 3
5(3x - 2y) = 5 * (-4)

Simplifying:

3x - 15y = 9
15x - 10y = -20

Now, let's subtract equation 1) from equation 2):

(15x - 10y) - (3x - 15y) = -20 - 9
15x - 10y - 3x + 15y = -29
12x + 5y = -29

Now, let's solve for x:

12x = -29 - 5y
x = (-29 - 5y)/12

Substitute this value of x back into equation 1):

(-29 - 5y)/12 - 5y = 3
-29 - 5y - 60y = 36
-65y = 36 + 29
-65y = 65
y = -1

Now, substitute this value of y back into the equation 1):

x - 5(-1) = 3
x + 5 = 3
x = 3 - 5
x = -2

So, the correct intersection point of the equations is (-2, -1).

A coordinate plane with four quadrants shows the x-axis ranging from negative 10 to 10 in increments of 1 and the y-axis ranging from negative 5 to 15 in increments of 1. A solid line and a dotted line intersect each other. The equation of the solid line is y equals x plus 5. The equation of the dotted line is 4 x plus 3 y equals 15. The intersection point of both lines is shown at 0 on the x-axis and positive 5 on the y-axis.
