Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1*12=12 1*20=20

2*6=12 2*10=20

3*4=12 4*5=20

both have a similar multiple of 4, so k must be 4.

Factors of 12 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12

Factors of 20: 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20

In both lists of factors, 4 is in common. Therefore, the value of K is 4 because it can divide into both 12 and 20 without a remainder. 2 is also another possible value of K.

<h3>Answer: A) infinite solutions</h3>

Explanation:

Despite there only being one line shown, there are actually two lines here. One just happens to be directly on top of the other.

We can see this by noting that 2y = 3x-1 turns into 4y = 6x-2 when we multiply both sides by 2. Multiplying both sides by the same number keeps the same equation, so that's why we have identical graphs.

The two identical graphs intersect each other infinitely many times, leading to infinitely many solutions. All solutions are (x,y) points on the blue line. Two such solutions are (1,1) and (3,4). All solutions are of the form $\left(x, \frac{3x-1}{2}\right)$
