Answer:

one solution

Explanation:

y=-3x+5

y=1/2x-2

You can tell straight off the bat, it does have a solution, and it isn't infinite solutions. If it had no solution, it would have the same slope but different y-intercepts. If it had infinite solutions, the 2 equations would have to be the exact same. So there is only one solution.

hope it helps
