Systems of equations with different slopes and different y-intercepts have no solutions?

No the only time that a system of equations would have no solutions is when the two equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts which would mean that they are parallel lines. However, if they have different slopes and different y-intercepts than the solution would be where the two lines intersect.


Can 2 parallel lines have different slopes?

No


What are two lines that have different slopes?

They are not parallel.


Two Different lines are parallel if their slopes are?

equal


Two lines are parallel if and only if their slopes are?

When their slopes are of the same value and their y intercepts are different


If two lines have different slopes and different y intercepts how many points of intersection are there?

If two lines have different slopes, then they intersect at exactly one point. It makes no difference what their y-intercepts are.


Are two lines with different slopes are parallel?

No, only lines that have the same slope can be parallel.


What 2 different lines are parallel if their slopes are blank?

equal


How do you use the slopes and y-intercepts to determine if two lines coincide or are parallel?

If the slopes are different the lines are neither - they intersect. They are parallel or coincident if the slopes are the same. Then, if the y-intercepts are the same they are coincident while if the y-intercepts are different, they are parallel.


If two lines are their slopes are negative reciprocals?

If the lines are perpendicular, their slopes are negative reciprocals.If the lines are perpendicular, their slopes are negative reciprocals.If the lines are perpendicular, their slopes are negative reciprocals.If the lines are perpendicular, their slopes are negative reciprocals.


Does every pair of linear simultaneous equations have a solution?

Actually not. Two linear equations have either one solution, no solution, or many solutions, all depends on the slope of the equations and their intercepts. If the two lines have different slopes, then there will be only one solution. If they have the same slope and the same intercept, then these two lines are dependent and there will be many solutions (infinite solutions). When the lines have the same slope but they have different intercept, then there will be no point of intersection and hence, they do not have a solution.


Will two lines with different y intercept cross each other?

They will, if they have different slopes.
