To give a simple answer

if you consider the equation to be that of a line.
then if the variables cancel out, then the two lines will have the same slope.

two lines with the same slope fall under two categories. Parallel lines, and lines on top of each other

parallel lines have no solutions since the lines never cross each other
lines on top of each other have infinitely many solutions since they "cross" everywhere on the line

Step-by-step explanation:

The question isn't clear on whether or not you are asking if the mom or if the store is owing money to the credit card company. The store owes the full amount paid. The mom owes nothing. You can look at the images for a more detailed explanation, but it is not really needed.
