ANSWER

a) There is no solution

EXPLANATION

The given system has equations,

y = (1)/(2) x + 1
and


y = (1)/(2) x - 3
The two lines are parallel because they have the same slope.

The solution to the system of equations is the point of intersection of the two lines.

We can see clearly from the graph that, the two lines will never intersect anywhere.

This means that the system of equations whose graph is represented by the two lines has no solution.
