Question

For what value(s) of b does the equation below have no solution? Explain. 3x-b=3x-2

Answer 1

Answer:

For any value of b different from 2 the system will have no solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$3x-b=3x-2$

we know that

If b=2

then

the system has infinite solutions (the equations on both sides would be the same)

therefore

For any value of b different from 2 the system will have no solution. (parallel lines with different y-intercept)
