Answer:

This system will have 1 solution

Explanation:

A linear system that has exactly one solution is called a consistent independent system. Consistent means that the lines intersect and independent means that the lines are distinct. Linear systems composed of lines that have the same slope and the y-intercept are said to be consistent dependent systems.
