you can do these algebra equations in your head.

Seems to me they're asking for the intercept coordinate points for the two straight lines/linear equations.

Of course you'd first have to solve all for Y first.

Substitute Y from the first equation into the second is the way I did it in my head, (but the other direction would work as well) and solve for X. Insert the result into the first equation and solve for Y.
