Question

What can one observe about a solution to the given lines?

• A. A solution is not possible as the lines do not intersect.
• B. The lines are parallel and hence no solution is possible.
• C. When the lines are extended further they will intersect and point of intersection will be the solution.
• D. The lines will coincide and will have infinite solutions.

Answer 1

The correct option is C When the lines are extended further they will intersect and point of intersection will be the solution.

From the given graph it is clear that if the lines are extended downwards, they will intersect at some point. This intersecting point will be the solution for the two lines.
