Aside from (0,0), determining the remaining intercept is not impossible. Let's set each of the functions equal to each other (meaning the y-values are equal), and solve for the x-value that would make that equality true:
11x6 = 2x7
We want to get all of the "x"s on one side of the equal sign, so we will divide both sides by x6:
11 = 2x
Now divide both sides by 2 to leave x all by itself on the right side:
11/2 = x
These two functions also equal each other when x = 11/2
