HELP, PLEASE

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Point A lies at the intersection of y=x and y=-2/3x+5. What are the coordinates of A. Express your answer as an ordered pair. If you know how to do it please, tell me.

nvm he's not on

Because you're looking for the intersection, you should find a point (x,y) that is true in both equations

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

hmmm bear in mind that's is a "system of equations" thus you can just use either substitution or elimination method to solve and find the vlaues for "x" and "y" keeping in mind that where the functions graph meet, are the coordinates of the found "x" and "y"

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

\(\large \begin{cases} {\color{brown}{ y}}=x \\ \quad \\ {\color{brown}{ y}}=-\cfrac{2}{3}x+5 \end{cases}\) notice that using substitution is lending easily in this case

It's making more sense, I'll try it again.

I got it! Thank you. X3
