Step-by-step explanation:

This Linear System has no Solution. It means that mathematically speaking, whatever value inserted for x, or y this will not result in an equality, i.e. we'll always have a false value. Like this:

FALSE Because then This Linear System does not have solution.

Geometrically, both equations are parallel lines, so they do not have any common point, i.e. solution. Notice they both have the same slope. Check the graph below.

if a = 1,   and b = 2, then the answer is 47.99999999. if you round that to the nearest whole number, the answer is 48.
