Answer: No solution

Both tables have slope 2 (y increases two for every increase of 1 in x). First has y intercept 5, second 15 (19=2(2)+b). So our system is

y = 2x + 5

y = 2x + 15

Those are parallel lines, which never meet, so no solution.

It’s 1/2 because every time the x variable goes up 1, the y variable goes up 2
