use demos and plot both functions, although you’re gonna have to put the second function into ax+bx+c form first

I mean like ... haven’t you heard about Photomath? Hold your camera over your math and wait for it to get the answer. Works on my homework .... (PS: I only got electrify homework within math, so I do not have to punt it how i managed to get to the answer.)

Wow admitting to cheating on Math homework are we? I'll be sure to bring this up at the next board meeting.

so you need to find the gradient of the second line first, you already have the points a and b so first do:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = (9-5)/(1--1) = 4/2 = 2

so now that you have the gradient, use the equation y-b=m(x-a) and plot either a or b into the equation:

y-b=m(x-a)
y-5=2(x--1)
y-5=2x+2
y=2x+7

now that you have the second equation, to find the intersection make both the equations equal to each other and find x:

2x+7=2x-4
2x=2x-11
x=0

since x=0, you have shown that these lines don't intersect and you can plot a graph as well for y=2x+7 vs y=2x-4 to prove it. they also won't intersect because they both have the same gradient.

can't remember if this is the way you do it but i think it is
