Answer:

C. Inconsistent; none

Step-by-step explanation:

Given system:

2x + y = 7 ⇒ y = -2x + 7
y + 5 = -2x ⇒ y = -2x - 5

We observe that:

The slopes are same m = -2
The y-intercepts are different, b = 7 and b = - 5
The lines are parallel, so no solution

Correct choice is C

Answer. A
Explanation. slope intercept form is y= mx + b. m represents the slope and b represents the y intercept (the point where the line meets the y-axis). We know that the slope is 1/3 but since the y-point is 0, there is no VISIBLE “b” in the equation. The correct solution is A :)
good luck.
