question involving the method of substitution. The question wants me to find the point of intercept and the two equations are:
2m+n=2
3m-2n=3
-----
n = 2-2m
---
Substitute into the other equation snd solve for "m":
3m - 2(2-2m) = 3
3m -4 + 4m = 3
7m = 7
m = 1
----
Solve for "n"
n = 2-2m
n = 2-2*1
n = 0
