Explanation:
consider the 2 equations expressed in slope-intercept form
∙xy=mx+b
where m is the slope and b the y-intercept
y=2x−3→(1)
y=2x+32→(2)
both lines have m=2
∙ Parallel lines have equal slopes
the 2 lines are therefore parallel and never intersect
⇒ there is no solution
graph{(y-2x+3)(y-2x-3/2)=0 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}
