Answer: Hello there!

We want to find a counterexample to: "a square has four right angles" then we need to find a figure that has four right angles and is not a square.

A first example can be a cross (two segments that cut each other and are perpendicular), but let's think in a geometric shape.

Think on a square that in the middle of each side has a small semicircle; this shape still has four right angles but is not more a square.

There you have two counterexamples of the definition given.

Answer:

1. Anything to do with the same slope but different a B (Ex. y=1/3x+1 and y=1/3x-8)

2. No solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Because the two lines are <u>parallel</u>, when no intersection between two lines happens, there will need to be a change in the B but the same slope. Remember the formula for an equation is y=mx+b. The m stands for the slope. With parallel lines, slopes are the same. If lines were to never intersect, you would have to change the b to a different number so that both lines could keep going at the same time, but never intersect.

2. Remember, solutions only happen when the two lines intersect. Infinite solutions happen when the lines are the same. One solution happens when two lines only have one point where they intersect. No solutions happen when the two lines don't intersect at all. Based off the graph given, there are no intersections so, there will be no solutions.
