Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to answer the questions given

a) To answer this, we have to write the equations in the slope-intercept form:

The slope-intercept form is:


y\text{ = mx + b}

m is the slope while b is the y-intercept

The equations would be:


\begin{gathered} y\text{ = 7x-2} \\ y\text{ = 7x-2} \end{gathered}

We can see that the equations are same

Since the equations are same, the slope is same which is 7

b) The y-intercept value is same too

c) Since the equations are same, there are infinitely many solutions for the system of equations
