Find the x & y intercept points by plugging x=0,y=0 in both equations. #DIV/0!
equation I 110.77
when x= 0 y= -6 ,( 0 , -6 ) 0.17
when y = 0 x= -6 ,( -2 , 0 )
Equation 2
when x= 0 y= 1 ( 0 , 1 )
when y = 0 x= -2 ( -2 , 0 )



You will observe that the point of intersection is -2 , 0
The solution of the system is ( -2 , 0 )
