Answer:

-4/11

Step-by-step explanation:

This cannot be a positive number because 1*-11=-11. This means all positive numbers will not work. It can't be more than less than -1 because -1*-11= 11. -4/11*-11=4

Answer:

b = -(4/11)

Step-by-step explanation:

-11b = 4

Division Property of Equality

b = -(4/11)

There’s not really any other way to explain it other than you divide both sides by -11.

\textit{the two lines coincide}\\
\textit{one is right on top}\\

\begin{array}{llll}
\textit{equal slopes}\\
\textit{equal y-intercepts}

$\bf \textit{no solution}\qquad\quad &\textit{lines are parallel} \qquad &
\begin{array}{llll}
\textit{equal slopes}\\
\textit{different y-intercepts}
\end{array}
\end{array}$

for example, let's look at the first set

y+3x =5 or y = -3x+ 5
and y = -3x + 2
y = m + b

the slopes are equal, the y-intercepts differ
that means, they're just parallel lines, no solution
