7x-8y=-48
8y-7x= 48
Thanks!! Answer by mananth(16946) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 7x-8y=-48
8y=7x+48
y=(7x/8)+6......1
8y-7x= 48
8y=7x+48
y=(7x/8)+6......2
Both lines are same.
If two lines have the same slope (ie are parallel) and the same y-intercept, they are actually the same exact line. In other words, systems have infinite solutions when the two lines are the same line!
