d. the statement is false because the lines have an intersection point.
When graphed, the first equation y = -x + 3 is a line with a y-intercept of 3 and a slope of -1.
The second equation x + y = 8 can be rewritten as y = -x + 8, which is a line with a y-intercept of 8 and a slope of -1.
Both lines have the same slope but different y-intercepts, which means they intersect at a single point. Therefore, there is a solution to the system of equations.
