# Plotting two surfaces and visualizing their intersection

Trying to plot the following two functions to show points of intersection.

2 x + y - 1 == 0,
x - y + 2 == 0
ContourPlot[{2 x + y - 1 == 0, x - y + 2 == 0}, {x, -5, 5}, {y, -5, 5}]


The above shows the plots, but I find it difficult to see the point of intersection. I suspect that there is a better method than this.

Please suggest a good method to plot such equations.

The intersection is the point where both lines meet. What difficulties do you have to see it? –  belisarius May 1 '13 at 1:43
True. I am unable to highlight the point and show its co-ordinates. I have looked at an approach in the following question. Is there a similar method that can be used here ? mathematica.stackexchange.com/questions/10472/…. –  user7210 May 1 '13 at 1:53
@user7210 are you looking for more than is in my answer? –  Jonathan Shock May 3 '13 at 1:19

If you want to know the value of the points then you can use Solve. If you want to be able to see the intersection point highlighted then you can add a point at that value of x and y:
eqs = {2 x + y - 1 == 0, x - y + 2 == 0}
