Answer:

Explanation:

y = 4x + 5

It is in y = mx + c form

Slope (m) = 4

2y = 8x + 15 {Divide both sides by 2}


(2y)/(2)=(8)/(2)x+(15)/(2)\\\\y = 4x +(15)/(2)

Slope = 4

If two lines have same slope, then they are parallel lines.

As you know, parallel lines have never intersect, this system of linear equations have no solution.
