To find the point of intersection for f(x) and g(x), you can sent them equal to each other to find x.

f(x) = g(x)

-5x + 12 = -2x - 3

-3x = -15

x = -15/-3

x = 5

Now that you have x, you can plug it into either f(x) or g(x) to get y. (You get the same y value)

f(x) = -5(5) + 12

f(x) = -25 + 12

f(x) = -13


g(x) = -2(5) - 3

g(x) = -10 - 3

g(x) = -13

The point of intersection is (5, -13)
