Answer:

x=0 and y=4 thats where the points meet

Explanation:

solution of x and y:

both equations equal to y so you can put them together

3/5x+4=-x+4

separate the variables and numbers...

1.6x=0

x=0

y=4

if ur using a graph, use the y intercept (0,4) for your first point

then, using y=-x+4, make -x a fraction -1/1

by using rise/run go down one unit from (0,4) since its negative 1

then one unit to the right from where you are

you should be able to connect the points for the first equation

find the second equation on your own now:)
