Hi there!
The way that an infinite number of solutions is achieved is when the two equations, when solved together, get an answer which is just a number equal to the same number. To do this, first substitute 6x-b in for y in the second equation.



Now, we see that b needs to be equal to -3 when multiplied by -1/2. When both sides are divided by -1/2, b becomes equal to 6. Thus, b must be 6.
Check work:




Thus, as they are equal to each other, the answer is correct. b = 6.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 4x + 1 is not a direct variation. Direct variations have the form y = kx. So y = 4x would be a direct variation (k=4), but not y = 4x+1

we need to move the decimal 8 places to the right
