To determine if Susie is correct, we can find the equations of the two lines and see if they are the same or if they intersect at a single point.
Let's find the equation of the first line going through the points (2, -13) and (-2, -1).
Using the point-slope formula, the slope of the line is:
m = (change in y) / (change in x)
m = (-1 - (-13)) / (-2 - 2)
m = 12 / (-4)
m = -3
We can use the point-slope form of a line to find the equation:
y - y1 = m(x - x1), where (x1, y1) is a point on the line.
Using the point (2, -13), the equation of the first line is:
y - (-13) = -3(x - 2)
y + 13 = -3x + 6
y = -3x - 7
Now let's find the equation of the second line going through the points (5, -22) and (-3, 2).
Using the same method, the slope of the line is:
m = (2 - (-22)) / (-3 - 5)
m = 24 / (-8)
m = -3
Using the point (5, -22), the equation of the second line is:
y - (-22) = -3(x - 5)
y + 22 = -3x + 15
y = -3x - 7
Now we can see that the equations of both lines are identical: y = -3x - 7. Therefore, the two lines are the same line, and they intersect at every point on that line. So, Susie is correct. The system of equations has infinitely many solutions.
