You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x + 7y = 6
7y=-x+6
y=-x/7+6/7
y=-x/7+6/7 (red line)
------------------
x = 5 - 7y
7y=-x+5
y=-x/7+5/7 (green line)
+graph%28+300%2C+200%2C+-6%2C+5%2C+-3%2C+3%2C+-x%2F7+%2B6%2F7%2C+-x%2F7+%2B5%2F7%29+ (graph 300x200 pixels, x from -6 to 5, y from -3 to 3, of TWO functions -x/7 +6/7 and -x/7 +5/7).
No intercept, thus no unique solution.
These are parallel lines.
