Line a passes through the points (0, 3)

and (4, 2). Line b passes through the
points (0,5) and (4, 6). Do the lines
ntersect? Explain.

No, the lines do not intersect. This is because the slopes of the two lines are different. Line a has a slope of -1/4, while line b has a slope of 1/4. Since the slopes are different, the lines will never intersect.
