what does it mean if a solution equals itself? this equation equals itself, so what does this mean?-2x - y = 1, -4x - 2y = -1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Does it mean it has infinitely many solutions or none at all? :)

Could you post the question exactly as it appears or post a screenshot of it?

OpenStudy (aum):

The two given equations represent two parallel lines and they will never intersect. So there are no solutions.
