The solution is (1,3). This is where the two lines intersect.
X-3/8=-1/4
+3/8
x=-1/4+3/8
make both bottom numbers the same so you are able to add them
-1/4×2/2= -2/8
x=-2/8+3/8
x=1/8
A vertical line has an undefined slope.
vertical lines are X= something
in this case it needs to intercept 9.
so it is X=9
