So just sub 1/2x+3 for all x’s in the equation and it is equal to -1x+10

A line joins the point

Harrizon [31]

Intersection of the first two lines:

$\begin{cases}5x - 2y + 3 = 0\\4x - 3y + 1 = 0\end{cases}$

Multiply the first equation by 4 and the second by 5:

$\begin{cases}20x - 8y + 12 = 0\\20x - 15y + 5 = 0\end{cases}$

Subtract the two equations:

$(20x - 8y + 12)-(20x - 15y + 5)=0 \iff 7y+7=0 \iff y=-1$

Plug this value for y in one of the equation, for example the first:

$5x - 2\cdot (-1) + 3 = 0\iff 5x+5=0 \iff x=-1$

So, the first point of intersection is $(-1,-1)$

We can find the intersection of the other two lines in the same way: we start with

$\begin{cases}x=y\\x=3y+4\end{cases}$

Use the fact that x and y are the same to rewrite the second equation as

$x=3x+4 \iff 2x=-4 \iff x=-2$

And since x and y are the same, the second point is $(-2, -2)$

So, we're looking for a line passing through $(-1,-1)$ and $(-2, -2)$ . We may use the formula to find the equation of a line knowing two of its points, but in this case it is very clear that both points have the same coordinates, so the line must be $y=x$
