The y is the same for both equations. Equate them
-x - 5 = 2x + 4 Add x to both sides
- 5 = 3x + 4 Subtract 4 from both sides.
- 9 = 3x Divide by 3
x = -9 / 3
x = - 3
y = - x - 5
y = -(-3) - 5
y = - 2
So that point is where the two equations meet.

y = -x - 5; y = 2x + 4 Note the semi colon in the middle.
To the moderator: This is my own work. I'm using Wolfram to get the answer.
Whenever we have a negative exponent, that means that the function should be in the denomenator. then the exponent will be positive.
Example
16^-4 = 1/(16^4)
The cost of one ticket is $0.75
To find t<span>he relative maximum value of the function we need to find where the function has its first derivative equal to 0.
Its first derivative is -7*(2x)/(x^2+5)^2
</span>7*(2x)/(x^2+5)^2 =0 the numerator needs to be eqaul to 0
2x=0
x=0
g(0) = 7/5
The <span>relative maximum value is at the point (0, 7/5).</span>
