Question

How many solutions does this system of equations have? y = –2x + 3 y = –2x – 1

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

in y = mx + b form, the slope is in the m position and the y int is in the b position

y = -2x + 3.....slope is -2 and y int is 3

y = -2x - 1...slope is -2 and y int is - 1

same slope, different y int's....means parallel lines...NO SOLUTION

learn this...it helps

same slope, different y int's = no solution

different slopes, different y int's = 1 solution

same slope, same y int's = infinite solutions
