Math Problem Statement
Solution
Let's solve the given problems one by one to find the point of intersection of each pair of lines.
Problem a:
Equations:
To find the point of intersection, we set the two equations equal to each other:
Solve for :
Substitute into one of the equations to find . Let's use :
So, the point of intersection is:
Problem b:
