Answer 2

I believe this problem is asking what slope m should be in order for there to be no point of intersection between the two equations. For what slope would the lines be prefectly parallel to each other and never intersect?

Answer 3

Note that you are given two equations with different y-intercepts. What does that tell you?

Answer 4

I don't know....
