2 lines on a chart with different x series

Hi, I have 2 series, each with their own x and y columns (in different tables)

Series 1 has its x col as 5 dates amd its y col as 5 values

Series 2 has its x col as 10 dates and its y col as 10 values

I want to plot both Series 1 and Series 2 on the same chart, with each series plotted as a line

 

The challenge here is PowerBI has to be smart enough to use 2 different x series (even though each is a date/time)

 

In Excel this is easily done as an "xy scatter plot" because there each series can be inputted with its own x series and y series (and the chart figures out what the overall min and max of the x and y axes should be)

 

I am finding this very hard to do in Power BI. Any suggestions please?

 

Thanks
