Observe where the two graphs intersect and extrapolate the x values on the x-axis. For example look at the second quadrant and draw a vertical line where the two graphs meet. It will read on the x-axis about -1.4. similar on the right hand side

I recommend using Geogebra. It can easily give you the exact answers. For example the exact answer are 1.97 and -1.38
