Question

These pairs intersect at a point. Find the coordinate point.

y=8x, y=40

How do you do this?

Answer 1

(5, 40 )

Explanation:

We are given the y- coordinate, that is y = 40

To find the x- coordinate , equate the right sides of the 2 equations, that is

8x = 40 ( divide both sides by 8 )

x = 5

Point of intersection = (5, 40 )
