To solve:
The given linear system of equations by graphing.
Answer to Problem 21CT
There is no solution for given system of equations.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
A system of equations:
Calculation:
First of all, we will convert our equations in slope-intercept form as shown below:
We can see that the slope of both lines is same and y-intercepts are different, so both lines are parallel.
Upon graphing both equations, we will get our required graph as shown below:
Upon looking at our graph, we can see that both lines never intersect. Therefore, there is no solution for given system of equations.
