How many solutions exist for the system of equations below? 3x+y=18 3x+y=16

2 answers:

7 0

A) 3x+y=18
B) 3x+y=16

These equations are inconsistent and have no solutions. If these equations were graphed, it would be two parallel lines.

we have

$3x+y=18$ -------> equation $1$

solve for y

$y=-3x+18$

The slope $m=-3$

$3x+y=16$ -------> equation $2$

solve for y

$y=-3x+6$

The slope $m=-3$

The two slopes are the same, so the lines are parallel.

therefore

It's an inconsistent system of equations that has no solution.

the answer is

The system has no solution

What is the solution of the system of equations? {3x−1/2y=−7/2 x+2y=1

k0ka [10]

3x -1/2y = -7/2
x = -2y + 1

3 (-2y + 1) -1/2y = -7/2
-6y +3 -1/2y = -7/2
-13/2y = -13/2
y = 1

x = -2(1) + 1
x = -1

Answer = (-1, 1)
