Question

y=x-2
-x + y = -5
can anyone tell me how many solutions are in this problem

Answer 1

Change he second equation into the form y=mx+b

Answer 2

can you just tell how many solutions are in this problem

Answer 3

No. I want u to find out by urself. I'm just gonna guide u

Answer 4

thiis proble is so confusing

Answer 5

So change the second equation into y=mx+b

Answer 6

how do i do that for this problem

Answer 7

So
-x+y=-5
+x. +x
-------------

Now what do u get after adding x to both sides?

Answer 8

5x

Answer 9

No. It'll be y=x+5

And what can u tell me out the slope of this equation and the first one?

Answer 10

thats it a no solution

Answer 11

Correct. Becuz both lines have the same slope and different y-intercepts, which means the lines are parallel and never meet

Answer 12

and they just keep going

Answer 13

Correct and they will never meet

Answer 14

And no solution becuz u will never find a point that contains both lines
