A linear function has an x-intercept of 12 and a slope of a. How does this function compare to the linear function that is
represented by the table?
16
OIt has the same slope and the same y-intercept.
O Ithas the same slope and a different y-intercept.
OIthas the same y-intercept and a different slope,
If the two linear equations have the same slope (and different y-intercepts), the lines will be parallel. Since parallel lines never intersect, a system composed of two parallel lines will have NO solution (no intersection of the lines.
