Use the image to answer the question.

A coordinate plane with 4 quadrants ranges from negative 10 to 10 in unit increments on both the x and y axes. A solid line and a dashed line with arrows at both the ends are drawn parallel to each other on the graph. The equation of the solid line is y equals negative x plus 3. The equation of the dashed line is x plus y equals 8.

Solving the system y=−x+3 and x+y=8 by graphing shows that there is no solution to the system. Is this statement true or false? Explain.

The statement is false, because the lines are parallel. Since the lines have the same slope, they will never intersect, meaning there is no solution to the system of equations.
