The equations you provided are:
- \( y = 23x - 1 \)
- \( y = 23x - 2 \)
Both equations are in slope-intercept form ( \( y = mx + b \) ), where \( m \) is the slope and \( b \) is the y-intercept.
- The slope of the first equation is 23, and the y-intercept is -1.
- The slope of the second equation is also 23, but the y-intercept is -2.
Since both equations have the same slope (23) but different y-intercepts (-1 and -2), they represent parallel lines.
Parallel lines never intersect, which means that there are no solutions for this system of equations.
