Answer:

(-2,-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

y=1/2x-4 and y=-2x-9

Just substitute one into the other and then solve for x. Then go back to get y.

1/2x-4=-2x-9

Add 4 on both sides

1/2x =-2x-5

Add 2x on both sides

2.5x=-5

Divide both sides by 2.5

x=-5/(2.5)=-2

Plug into y=-2x-9 to find y.

y=-2(-2)-9=4-9=-5.
