Question 1143517
.
<pre>
First equation represents straight line with the slope {{{2/3}}} and y-intercept of -5.


Second equation represents straight line with the slope "a" and y-intercept b


If you take  a= {{{2/3}}}  and  b= -5,  the second equation will represent the same straight line as the first equation.


So, the system will have INFINITELY MANY solutions.


Or, simply, if a= {{{2/3}}},  b= -5,  the two equation will be IDENTICAL and, therefore, the system will have 
infinitely many solutions.


So, your answer is  a=  {{{2/3}}},  b= -5.
