Question

How can I find the co-ordinatie of their point of intersection?

Answer 1

Combine the two equations so that it’s 2x+5=4x-1 and then subtract 2x from both sides. now it’s 5=4x-1 and add 1 to both sides. now is 6=4x 6 divided by 4 is 1.5 so that is the x value. now sub 1.5 as the x value into the first equation so it’s y=2(1.5)+5. you do the math and it’s y=8 (because 1.5 times 2 is 3 and 3+5 is 8) then your point is (1.5,8)
