Answer:

No solutions (cannot be determined)

Explanation:

If the slopes are the same, but the y-intercepts are different, this means that the lines will never intersect each other because they are going at the same rate but starting on different positions of the y-axis. Therefore, there are no solutions for the system of equations.
