Correct Answer: (0, –2)
Solution :
Given:
The equation is $2x–3y = 6$
The Y-axis can be expressed as $x = 0$.
So, both lines should be satisfied at the intersection.
Substitute $x=0$ in the equation, $2x–3y = 6$, we get,
$(2×0)–3y = 6$
⇒ $y = –2$
The point is (0, –2) which satisfies both the lines.
Hence, the correct answer is (0, –2).
