Answer:
D. Parallel lines
Step-by-step explanation:
Lines which intersect have their point of intersection as the solution to the system of equations. If there is no solution then two lines do not intersect. The two lines must be parallel.
Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this, we just have to the multiplication and do the simplification (adding up the similar terms) afterwards:
3(x+1)=7(x-2)-3 becomes...
3x + 3 = 7x - 14 - 3
3x + 3 = 7x -17
Then we move all x's on one side and all plain numbers on the other side, we'll move the x's to the right since there's a bigger value there, and will move the plain numbers on the left side, by subtracting 3x and by adding 17 on both sides
3x + 3 - 3x + 17 = 7x -17 + 17 - 3x
20 = 4x
If we isolate x alone we have:
20/4 = x or x = 5
