You showed a LINEAR system.

Add them and find x, because you've then eliminated y.
Use it the x you found to find corresponding y value.
Intersection point now known.


x=11%2F3
and
y=19%2F3

Hello, in your post you INCORRECTLY call these equations as nonlinear.


In opposite, it is a classic type of the system of linear equations.
