PLease help me I need to get this done soon!
Consider two lines that form a linear system. Line 1: slope = 4 and y-intercept of (0,-3) Line 2: slope = 4 and y-intercept of (0,8) Part 1: What type of lines would this be? Part 2: How many solutions does this system have?
Notice that the slopes are the same. what does that tell you about the lines?
I forgot to add this one part in to the question, ive already done the two that i had just posted but this is the last one and its hard to understand could you please help me with it? here it is: Are the x and y intercepts the same or different?
@DebbieG
You are given the y-intercepts in the problem. Are they the same?
As for x-intercepts, what kind of lines are these? Do they share a common point? For the lines to have the same x-intercepts, they would have to share that point. So what do you think?
Well the lines are parallel so they dont have an intercept correct?
Right, they don't share ANY common points. So they certainly don't share their y-intercepts, or their x-intercepts.
Okay, thank you very much
