One way of thinking about this problem is that we are looking for the intersection of two equations:

1.      y=x+2/3

2.      y=4/x+1

 

The first equation is a straight line:

 

 

The second equation is a hyperbola:

 

 

 

If we overlay the two equations, we can see where they intersect:

 

 

 

If we rearrange the terms, we can restate the equation as follows: 3x2-x-12=0. This describes a parabola:

 

 

The points of intersection are as follows:
