SOLUTION: y = 2x + 3
y = 2x + 5
You know by looking at these two problems that the slope is the same for each equation (y = mx + b - the slope is 2) and they have a different y-intercept

Question 483193: y = 2x + 3
y = 2x + 5
You know by looking at these two problems that the slope is the same for each equation (y = mx + b - the slope is 2) and they have a different y-intercept.
First - what is the y-intercept for each of these equations? Second - can you say anything about this system of equations - visualize the solution? Found 2 solutions by edjones, stanbon:Answer by edjones(8007) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! y = 2x + 3
y = 2x + 5

---------------------------
First - what is the y-intercept for each of these equations?
1st: 3
2nd: 5
-------------------
Second - can you say anything about this system of equations - visualize the solution?
The line are parallel.
They have no common point.
The system has no solution.
