Question 566023
3	x	+	1	y	=	-4	.............1	
-5	x	+	1	y	=	8	.............2	


Find the y & x intercepts of both lines and draw the lines.
The point of intersection of the lines is the solution of the system

equation1								
when x=	0	y=	-4	(	0	,	-4	)
when y =	0	x=	-1.33	(	-1.33	,	0	)
Equation 2								
when x=	0	y=	8	(	0	,	8	)
when y =	0	x=	-1.6	(	-1.6	,	0	)

{{{drawing(300,300,-10,10,-10,10,circle(0,-4,0.3),circle(-1.33,0,0.3),circle(0,8,0.3),circle(-1.6,0,0.3),grid(0.5),graph(300,300,-10,10,-10,10,y=-3x-4,y=5x+8))}}}

The solution is (-1.5,0.5)
