Answer:

The solution point is (4,2).

Explanation:

Equation of straight line passing through the points (0,0) and (4,2) is given by


(y - 2)/(2 - 0) = (x - 4)/(4 - 0)

⇒ 2y = x ............ (1)

And the other straight line is y = - x + 6 .............. (2)

Now, solving equations (1) and (2) we get, y = - 2y + 6

⇒ 3y = 6

y = 2

And from equation (1) we get, x = 2y = 4

Therefore, the solution point is (4,2). (Answer)
