Question

Determine the number of solutions to this system of linear equations (0, 1, ∞)
:

y=7x+8

−7x+y=−8

(1 point)
This system of linear equations has
solution(s).

Answer 1

This system has 0 solutions.

Reason: Both lines have slope 7 (y = 7x + 8 and y = 7x − 8) but different y-intercepts, so they are distinct parallel lines and do not intersect.
