The lines given are 2x - 5y +2 = 0 and y = -3x +
6
At the point of intersection of two lines, the
x-coordinate as well as the y-coordinate is the same.
2x -
5y +2 = 0
=> x = (-2 +
5y)/2
substitute in y = -3x +
6
=> y = -3*(-2 + 5y)/2 +
6
=> y = 6/2 - 15y/2 +
6
=> y = 9 -
15y/2
=> y + 15y/2 =
9
=> 17y/2 =
9
=> y = 18/17
x = (-2
+ 5y)/2 = (-2 + 5*(18/17))/2 = (-34 + 90)/34
=> x =
56/34 = 28/17
This gives the common point of
the lines as (28/17, 18/17)
