Answer:

(1.5, -3)

Explanation:

Both equations are in slope intercept form which means that:

for y = mx + b

m = slope

b = y-intercept

The slope can help us go from the y-intercept to the next point on the graph to make the line

For the equation

y = 2x - 6

the y-intercept is -6, so plot a point there.

The slope is 2 which means you will go up 2 then to the right by 1 to the next point on the graph.

Use the same process to find the line for y = -4x + 3, but you have to keep in mind that when the "m" value is negative, that means the line will point to the left of the graph instead of the right.

Once the lines are draw, the point where they intercept will be the solution.
