-7x+3y=-24+7x-2x+5y
-7x+3y=5x+5y-24
-12x-2y=-24
-7x+3y=-11
-36x-6y=-72
-14x+6y=-22
-50x=-94
Okay well I did something wrong
If the lines cross, there is a solution , which means that there is a y and x value which satisfies both equations.
since both the equations start with x+y they shoulddd have the same answer if they had crossed. we can tell straight away these lines do not cross because 6=/=4 6 doesnt equal 4. therefore no solution.
TIP: for the future, if they had crossed, you can use simultaneous equations to find x and y to see if they work in each equation and find a solution ( since they are straight lines there will only be 1 solution, unless they are literally the same line in which case then then they are ALWAYS on top of each other and always have the same values)
