Consider the system of equations shown below. y = negative 5 x + 1. y = negative 5 x + 10 When graphed, the system consists of t
wo lines that will never meet, no matter how far they are extended. Why are the lines parallel? The linear equations have the same slope and y-intercept. The linear equations have different slopes and y-intercepts. The linear equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts. The linear equations have different slopes but the same y-intercept.\
