Question 239152: How do I find the point of intersection of the pair of straight lines
y=-8x-10
-y=9x+9
(x,y)= (?,?)

y=-8x-10 (red line)
-y=9x+9
y=9x/-1+9/-1
y=-9x-9 (green line)
You can solve the 2 equations for x & y or you can graph them & calculate the intersection.
y=-8x-10
-y=9x+9 add
----------------------
0=x-1
x=1 ans.
y=-8*1-10
y=-8-10
y=-18
(x,y)= (1,-18)
