1. **State the problem:** We need to graph the system of equations and determine the solution for the system:
$$6x - 3y = 3$$
$$4x - 2y = 8$$
2. **Rewrite each equation in slope-intercept form $y = mx + b$ to graph easily.**
For the first equation:
$$6x - 3y = 3$$
Subtract $6x$ from both sides:
$$-3y = -6x + 3$$
Divide both sides by $-3$:
$$y = \frac{\cancel{-6}x}{\cancel{-3}} - \frac{3}{-3} = 2x - (-1) = 2x + 1$$
For the second equation:
$$4x - 2y = 8$$
Subtract $4x$ from both sides:
$$-2y = -4x + 8$$
Divide both sides by $-2$:
$$y = \frac{\cancel{-4}x}{\cancel{-2}} - \frac{8}{-2} = 2x - (-4) = 2x + 4$$
3. **Interpret the lines:**
- First line: $y = 2x + 1$
- Second line: $y = 2x + 4$
Both lines have the same slope $2$ but different y-intercepts ($1$ and $4$), so they are parallel and will never intersect.
4. **Determine the solution:**
Since the lines are parallel, there is **no solution** to the system (the system is inconsistent).
**Final answer:** The system has no solution because the lines are parallel and do not intersect.
