The equation for line m is y=1/2x-5  . Use this information and these descriptions to write an equation for line n, line p, and line r.

a) Line m and line n have no solutions. Write an equation that can represent line n.

 

b)Line m and line p have infinitely many solutions. Write an equation that can represent line p.

 

c)Line m and line r have one solution. Write an equation that can represent line r.

OK, so first off a) and c) have infinitely many solutions

a) they are parellel, so y=1/2x+b, where be is anything but -5

b) they are the same exact line, so y=1/2x-5

c) they are different, so y=mx+b, where m is anything but 1/2 and b is anything but -5
