भ.
y=-x-7
y=-x-7
y=x+3 y=2x+1
-3

y = 2x + 1 and y = x + 3: (2, 5)

y = x + 3 and y = -3x - 2: (-5/4, 1/4)

y = x + 3 and y = -x - 7: (-5, -2)

y = -x - 7 and y = -x - 7: Any point on the line, (-1, -8) for example.

y = x + 3 and y = 2x + 1: (-2, 1)

y = 2x + 1 and y = -3x - 2: (-3/5, -1/5) .

The point of intersection occurs when two equations are equal at the same x and y values.

Let's analyze each system:

y = 2x + 1 and y = x + 3:

Setting both equations equal: 2x + 1 = x + 3 -> x = 2 -> y = 2(2) + 1 = 5.

Point of intersection: (2, 5).

y = x + 3 and y = -3x - 2:

Setting both equations equal: x + 3 = -3x - 2 -> 4x = -5 -> x = -5/4 -> y = -5/4 + 3 = 1/4.

Point of intersection: (-5/4, 1/4).

y = x + 3 and y = -x - 7:

Setting both equations equal: x + 3 = -x - 7 -> 2x = -10 -> x = -5 -> y = -5 + 3 = -2.

Point of intersection: (-5, -2).

y = -x - 7 and y = -x - 7:

Identical equations, meaning they overlap completely. Any point on this line will be the intersection point.

We can choose (-1, -8) for example.

y = x + 3 and y = 2x + 1:

Setting both equations equal: x + 3 = 2x + 1 -> x = -2 -> y = -2 + 3 = 1.

Point of intersection: (-2, 1).

y = 2x + 1 and y = -3x - 2:

Setting both equations equal: 2x + 1 = -3x - 2 -> 5x = -3 -> x = -3/5 -> y = 2(-3/5) + 1 = -1/5.

Point of intersection: (-3/5, -1/5).
