Solve the following system:

1 answer:

7 0

You can rewrite the second equation because you know what y equals, so you can write it as 2x + x + 3 = 9
3x + 3 = 9
- 3
3x = 6
÷ 3
x = 2

And now you use the equation of what y equals and substitute in the value of x, so y = 2 + 3
y = 5

So your final answer is A. (2, 5). I hope this helps!

Solutions of 3x+2y=4 and 6x+4y=8

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

Infinite solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First, you can solve this easily by elimination. Multiply the first equation by -2 in order to cancel out terms when adding to the second equation.

2) Then, add the new set of equations together. However, everything cancels out, bringing us to 0 = 0. This means that the lines the equations make must be the same. Thus, all real numbers must make this equation true, meaning that there are infinite solutions.
