You can put this solution on YOUR website!
find the point of intersection of each line to the ellipse x%5E2%2F9+%2B+y%5E2%2F36+=+1
a.) y=2x+2
x%5E2%2F9+%2B+y%5E2%2F36+=+1
Sub for y
x%5E2%2F9+%2B+%282x%2B2%29%5E2%2F36+=+1
4x%5E2+%2B+4x%5E2+%2B+8x+%2B+4+=+36
8x%5E2+%2B+8x+-+32+=+0
x%5E2+%2B+x+-+4+=+0
x+=+-1%2F2+%2Bsqrt%2817%29%2F2
y = 2x + 2
y+=+1+%2B+sqrt%2817%29
--> the point (x,y)
-------
x+=+-1%2F2+-sqrt%2817%29%2F2
y = 2x + 2
y+=+1+-+sqrt%2817%29
--> the 2nd point (x,y)
===================================
b.) y=-2x-9
Similar to above.
===============================
c.) 2x+5y+3=0
--> y = -(2x + 3)/5
Sub as above.
==================================
If there are no real solutions, there are no intersections.
