Answer:

(-\frac{50}{13},-\frac{12}{13})

Step-by-step explanation:

To start, you need to find the equation of both of these lines. For the orange one, the slope can be found with the points (-5,0) and (0,-4), where there is a drop of 4 for a run of 5. This is a slope of -4/5, and a y-intercept of -4. For the purple line, you can use the points (-2,0) and (0,1), where there is a rise of 1 for a run of 2 or a slope of 1/2 and a y intercept of 1. Therefore, the two equations are:

y=-\frac{4}{5}x-4

y=\frac{1}{2}x+1

You can now set them equal to each other:

-\frac{4}{5}x-4=\frac{1}{2}x+1

Add 4 to both sides:

-\frac{4}{5}x=\frac{1}{2}x+5

Multiply both sides by 2:

-\frac{8}{5}x=x+10

Multiply both sides by 5:

-8x=5x+50

Subtract 5x from both sides:

-13x=50

Divide both sides by -13:

x=-\frac{50}{13}

y=-\frac{12}{13}

Hope this helps!

I got ten. Here's the equation. 

x = 1/2x + 5 

<span>Subtract 1/2x from both sides to get all x's on one side </span>

<span>x - 1/2x = 1/2x - 1/2x + 5 </span>

<span>1/2x = 5 </span>

<span>Now multiple the left by 2 to get x, but since it's an equation, you need to also multiply the right by 2 to keep it =. </span>

<span>2 * 1/2x = 2 * 5 </span>

<span>x = 10 cats</span>
