Sketch the information you get from the exercise in a coordinate plane.
(a,b) is the point where g and h intersect
Practice makes perfect
We know that the value of both functions at x=a is b. We also know that they have different slopes. Let's plot the arbitrarypoint (a,b) on a coordinate plane and graph any two lines with different slopes that meet at (a,b).
We can see that the point (a,b) is where the lines intersect.
