Answer:

No solution.

Explanation:

The given equations are :

x−3y=6 ...(1)

x−3y=−3 ...(2)

We need to solve the above equations.

The above two lines are parallel. Forparallel lines,


(a_1)/(a_2)=(b_1)/(b_2)\\e (c_1)/(c_2)

Here,


(a_1)/(a_2)=(b_1)/(b_2)

It means, the above equations have no solution.
