Math Problem Statement
Determine which system of equations has no solution.
Solution
To determine which system of equations has no solution, we look for inconsistent systems. This typically happens when two equations represent parallel lines, meaning their slopes are the same but the constants differ.
Let's check each system:
- and
- and
- and
We need to compare the ratios of the coefficients for , , and the constants.
