1. **State the problem:** Find the intersection point of the lines given by the equations $$4x - 18 = -3y$$ and $$5x - 2y = 11$$.
2. **Rewrite the equations in standard form:**
From the first equation:
$$4x - 18 = -3y \implies 4x + 3y = 18$$
The second equation is already:
$$5x - 2y = 11$$
3. **Use the system of linear equations:**
$$\begin{cases} 4x + 3y = 18 \\ 5x - 2y = 11 \end{cases}$$
4. **Solve for one variable:**
Multiply the first equation by 2 and the second by 3 to eliminate $y$:
$$2(4x + 3y) = 2(18) \implies 8x + 6y = 36$$
$$3(5x - 2y) = 3(11) \implies 15x - 6y = 33$$
5. **Add the two equations:**
$$8x + 6y + 15x - 6y = 36 + 33 \implies 23x = 69$$
6. **Solve for $x$:**
$$x = \frac{69}{23} = 3$$
7. **Substitute $x=3$ into one of the original equations to find $y$:**
Using $4x + 3y = 18$:
$$4(3) + 3y = 18 \implies 12 + 3y = 18 \implies 3y = 6 \implies y = 2$$
8. **Final answer:**
The lines intersect at the point $$\boxed{(3, 2)}$$.
