I suggest you solve the equations simultaneously. There are several ways to do it; here is one: since y = 3x + 4 and y is also equal to 2 - 7x, that means that the right sides of the two equations are equal. This gives you the equation:
3x + 4 = 2 - 7x
Solve that for x. Then, replace the value you find in any of the two original equations to find the corresponding value for y.
Another method is to actually plot the lines. However, if the intersection does not happen to be a pair of whole numbers, you can only estimate the value. Plotting is fairly easy since the equations are already in slope-intercept form (i.e., solved for variable "y").
perpendicular lines form a right angle at their intersection so draw the right angle symbol at the intersection
lines
Perpendicular lines.
If all three lines are parallel, there are zero points of intersection. If all three lines go through a point, there is one point of intersection. If two lines are parallel and the third one crosses them, there are two. If the three lines make a triangle, there are three points.
Parallel lines: they never intersect Transversal lines: they cut through parallel line Line segment: it has 2 endpoints Number line: has negative, zero and postive numbers on it in ascending order Line of best fit: best correlation between 2 variables Dotted line: separates graphical quantities Straight line equation: plotted on the Cartesian plane
It works out that the point of intersection is at (-4, -3.5) on the Cartesian plane.

It is also known as the Cartesian plane where shapes and lines are plotted on it.
It is called coordinated geometry which is plotted on the Cartesian plane.
It was the French mathematician Rene Descartes who created linear equations which are plotted on the Cartesian plane as straight lines.
The intersection is (-2, 6)
The slopes of parallel lines remain equal distance apart and when plotted on the Cartesian plane they have the same slope but with different y intercepts.
By a process of elimination and substitution the lines intersect at: (1/4, 0)
Probably not. But there is not enough information in the question to be certain.
There are many types of lines used in math and some of them are:- Parallel lines never intersect Perpendicular lines meet at right angles Lines of intersection have opposite equal angles Solidus line separates the numerator from the denominator in fractions Line of best fit used in data correlation Number line has numbers from minus to positive in ascending order Line segments have defined end points Straight line equations are plotted on the Cartesian plane Transversal line cuts through parallel lines with special angular properties
