Question

How many solutions will this system of equations have?

y = -3.5x - 3.5
y = -3.5x + 3.5

No solution
Infinite solutions
One solution
Two solutions

Answer 1

This answer would be D.

Answer 2

Why would it be two solutions?

Answer 3

Graphing calculators are great for questions like these. I use https://www.desmos.com/calculator to graph the equations. It's easier to determine how many solutions they have.

Answer 4

So they have two solutions because the both cross the y and x axis?

Answer 5

I would go with what you were taught. I was taught that if it's parallel lines that there is no solution.

Answer 6

Youre right, parallel lines done have a solution.

Answer 7

Do you have any more questions?

Answer 8

I do actually

Answer 9

Should i post them here?

Answer 10

Ok, let me see, I can maybe help

Answer 11

yup

Answer 12

The graph of a system of equations with the same slope will have no solutions.

Always
Sometimes
Never





The graph of a system of equations will intersect at exactly 1 point.

Always
Sometimes
Never
