Hi
find points by choosing x-values and determining the y-values
y = -4x-5 Points (0-5), (-1,-1) and (-2,3) on this line (blue)
y = x - 5 Points (0-5), (1,-4) and (2,-3) on this line (green)
Lines intersect at Pt(0,-5) This ordered pair is the solution for this system
Plot points, connect with the corresponding lines
