Q. How many solutions does the system of equations below have?y=−7x−3y=54x+81Choices:(A)no solution(B)one solution(C)infinitely many solutions
Analyze Slopes: Analyze the slopes of both equations to determine if they are the same or different.The slope of the first equation y=−7x−3 is −7.The slope of the second equation y=54x+81 is 54.Since −7 is not equal to 54, the slopes of the equations are different.
Determine Different Slopes: Since the slopes are different, the lines are not parallel and will intersect at exactly one point.This means the system of equations has one unique solution.
