The graph shows two lines crossing at point Q whose coordinates read (3, 1).
A student claims the pair has infinitely many solutions. Is the student correct, and why?

Class 10Graphical MethodAlgebra — Systems of Equations
  • ANo; intersecting lines give exactly one solution
  • BYes; every crossing means infinite solutions
  • CNo; crossing lines give no solution
  • DYes; the lines must coincide

Step-by-Step Solution

Two distinct lines crossing at a single point (3, 1) share only that one point, so there is exactly one solution, not infinitely many.
Answer: A) No; intersecting lines give exactly one solution
