What is the solution to this system of equations? #{:(y=10+6x),(y=6x):}#
1 Answer
There is no solution.
Explanation:
These two lines have the same slope, that being 6. When two lines have the same slope, they'll either be overlapping (i.e. the same line) or distinctly parallel.
When two lines overlap, they share all points in common. That is, any point
When two lines are distinct and parallel, they share no points in common, because parallel lines never cross. That is, no point

To show this mathematically, we start with
#y" "=10+6x#
#6x" "=10+6x" "# (assume#y# is equal to#6x# )
#6x-6x=10#
#" "0=10#
This "equality" gives no solution in
