… I don't see how you obtained 3/2 for the slope …
Working with 'slope' is unfamiliar because you've decided to study linear algebra without a background in beginning-algebra. You're missing also a second prerequisite, as you haven't yet finished learning pre-algebra topics (eg:
arithmetic with ratios). What you're trying to do is self-study three full math courses at the same time. You're going to be busy for awhile!
In beginning algebra, we learn several ways to find slopes. When you're
given a linear equation, an easy way is: Solve the equation for the dependent variable (in this exercise, y is the dependent variable). The equations were given in Standard form:
A∙x + B∙y = C
Subtract A∙x from each side:
B∙y = -A∙x + C
Divide each side by B:
y = (-A/B)∙x + C/B
The equation has been solved for y. We call this form 'Slope-Intercept', and, as Subhotosh showed in post #6, the symbols
m (for the slope -A/B) and
b (for C/B) are used:
y = mx + b
The line crosses the y-axis at the point (0,b). We call (0,b) the y-intercept. The form y=mx+b is called the Slope-Intercept form because it
shows us both the line's slope (m) and its y-intercept (0,b) -- simply by looking at them.
Solve the linear system …
3x - 2y = 4
6x - 4y = 9
Put each equation into Slope-Intercept form (i.e., solve for y). We can use either y=(-A/B)x + (C/B) or we can solve for y. I'll do both ways.
1st equation: 3x - 2y = 4
-A = -3
B = -2
C = 4
m = -A/B = -3/(-2)
b = B/C = 4/(-2)
y = (3/2)x - 2
2nd equation: 6x - 4y = 9
Subtract 6x from each side
-4y = -6x + 9
Divide each side by -4 (that's the same as multiplying each side by the reciprocal: -1/4)
y = (3/2)x - 9/4
The
Slope-Intercept form shows us that both lines have the same slope (they are parallel) but cross the y-axis at different points (they are distinct lines).
So, you were correct (in post #8); the given lines do not intersect. Yet, your answer could be better written. Instead of saying "there is no x and no y coordinates", you need to be complete: "There are no (x,y) coordinates
that solve this system".
You could also write "Inconsistent system" or "No solution".
