To determine the crossing point of the 2 lines, we have to solve the system formed from their equations:
2x+y=5 (1)
-3x+4y=9 (2)
We'll multiply the relation (1) by 3 and the relation (2), by 2, and after that, we'll add (1) to (2). We'll obtain:
6x+3y-6x+8y = 15 + 18
After reducing similar terms, we'll get:
11y = 33
y = 33/11
y=3
We'll substitute y by 3, into the relation (1):
2x+3 = 5
2x = 5-3
2x = 2
x = 1
The crossing point is A (1,3).
