Question 4 • CMS 2026-2027 NC Math 1 CREDIT RECOVERY
For two linear equations to have no solution, their lines must have the same slope but different y-intercepts. The given line has slope 8 and y-intercept 7. Choice A, y = 8x − 7, has the same slope but a different y-intercept, so the lines are parallel and never intersect.
