I already did this one. Stop trying to game the system by double posting. You just waste everyone's time.

The -coordinate of the point of intersection is the value of either function evaluated at the -coordinate of the point of intersection.

Set the two functions equal to each other, then solve for . Evaluate either function (or both if you want to check your work) for that value.
