Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Line 1
x y
–4 3
–2 4
---
slope = (4-3)/(-4--2) = 1/-2 = -1/2
--------------------
Line 2
x y
0 8
2 6
----
slope = (6-8)/(2-0) = -2/2 = -1
--------
Since the slopes are different, the line meet at one point.
Ans:: One solution for the system
