Given the equation y=-1/3x - 8, write a second linear equation to create a system that: has exactly one solution. has no solution. has infinitely many solutions.

For two linear equations to have exactly one solution, their gradient/slope must be different. That's the only requirement. For example y=x intersects with -1/3x - 8 at (-6, -6). So one that has only one solution could be y=x+5.

For two linear equations to have no solutions they must have the same gradient/slope but not be the same equation. Hence, y = -1/3x + 8 would never intersect with y = -1/3x - 8.

For two linear equations to have infinite solutions, they must be the same line or simplify to give the same line. I.e. 3y = -x - 8 would have infinitely many solutions with the above graph.
