In matrix form, this is
The coefficient matrix has determinant
so it has an inverse, which is
Multiply both sides by the inverse matrix:
so that 
and 
.
If you use the distributive property, you will multiply 4 by 2x to get 8x and 4 by -4 to get -16.
8x-16=8x+k
If you want infinitely many solutions the equations on both sides of the equal sign need to be the same. So, k would need to be -16.

Answer:
x=2.2
y=-3.4
Step-by-step explanation:
subtract the second from the first
-5x=-11
x=2=2
substituting by x in the first equation
so y=-3.4
The volume of a rectangular prism or cube is: Length × Width × Height
In this case,
- the length of the prism is 2 feet
- the width of the prism is 1.5 feet
- the height of the prism is 1.5 feet
Multiply the above to find the volume: 2 × 1.5 × 1.5 = 4.5 ft³
Keep in mind that volume is represented in cubic units!
