Answer:

No

Explanation:

The solution of a system is where the two lines intersect.

Parallel lines do not intersect, thus the system does not have a solution.

What are parallel lines?

  • lines that do not meet no matter how much you extend the lines in both directions (upwards and downwards)
  • equidistant to each other (same distance between the two lines for the entire length of the line)
