Infinite number of solutions...means it will be the same line.
you have probably heard about equivalent fractions like 1/2 = 2/4...and if u reduce 2/4, it equals 1/2. Well...there are also equivalent equations. They can also be reduced.

3y = 2x - 9 cant be reduced, but u can make an equivalent equation by multiplying it all by a number.Any number.

lets try 2...
2(3y = 2x - 9) =
 6y = 4x - 18...this is an equivalent equation....the same line..infinite solutions.Notice that u can reduce it by dividing everything by 2 which would equal 3y = 2x - 9....so u see, it is like equivalent fractions....kind of...lol

or multiply it by 3
3(3y = 2x - 9) =
9y = 6x - 27....this is also equivalent.....so this is an answer as well

and u can multiply it by 4 and get another equivalent equation..or 5, or 6....and so on...

make any sense ?? Just remember, to get the result of infinite solutions, the equations have to be equivalent

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 2x - 9y = 23

2 x = 9 y + 23

y = (2 x)/9 - 23/9

2 x - 9 y - 23 = 0

2. 5x - 3y = -1

5 x + 1 = 3 y

y = (5 x)/3 + 1/3

5 x - 3 y + 1 = 0

I belive that should help you out a bit :D
