Estimate the coordinates of the point where the two lines meet. Description: The graph of two intersecting lines in the xy-plane. Scale negative 1 through 5 on both axes. The first line slants upward and right, crosses y-axis at 0, and passes through the point (3, 2). The second line slants downward and to the right, crosses the y-axis at 6, and passes through the point (2, 1). Choose two equations that make up the system represented by the graph.
