The answer is one. First, these are both straight lines, meaning they will have one intersection point. In order to find the intersections of these two lines, we must set them equal to one another. So x + 5y = 6 equals 3x + 30y = 36. When you solve the two equations together, you'll get one intersection point at (0 , 1.2).
