A garbage truck and a dump truck each drive along a straight road between two points. Using the points on a map that the city created, the garbage truck will start at (–3, 4) and will stop at (5, 12). The dump truck will start at (5, –3) and will stop at (–4, 33). What are the coordinates of the intersection that both trucks drive through?

draw a graph and put the points for the trash and dump trucks... I would suggest different colours for them to not confuse them... and then draw a line and write where they cross, or intersect
