Question

HELP! Giving more points: The system of equations has no solutions. Which statement is true?

y = 4x + a
y = bx + 3

A: a = 3 and b = 4
B: a is not equal to 3 and b = 4
C: a = -3 and b = -4
D: a = -3 and does not equal -4

Explain answer

Answer 1

B: a is not equal to 3 and b= 4

Answer 2

b=4 and a does not equal 3
