### Determining the Number of Solutions for Systems of Linear Equations

A linear system may have a unique solution, no solution, or infinitely many solutions. Determine the number of solutions for each of the following systems.

#### a. 
\[
\begin{cases}
5x - 7y = -7 \\ 
-5x + 7y = 9 
\end{cases}
\]
- ☐ Infinitely many solutions
- ☐ No Solution
- ☐ Unique solution

#### b.
\[
\begin{cases}
7x - 3y = -5 \\ 
19x - 8y = -3 
\end{cases}
\]
- ☐ No Solution
- ☐ Unique solution
- ☐ Infinitely many solutions

#### c.
\[
\begin{cases}
-3x + 3y = 8 \\ 
9x - 9y = -24 
\end{cases}
\]
- ☐ No Solution
- ☐ Unique solution
- ☐ Infinitely many solutions

Analyze each system to determine the number of solutions. The possibilities for the number of solutions are:
- **Infinitely many solutions**: The equations represent the same line.
- **No solution**: The lines are parallel and distinct.
- **Unique solution**: The lines intersect at a single point.
