Looks like a pretty regular system, no parallel lines. In fact the second equation is a vertical line as written; not sure if that's a typo. Either way,
Answer: EXACTLY ONE SOLUTION
Answer:
x = 30
Step-by-step explanation:
in order to solve for the value of x in the expression 6 ( x − 2 ) = 8 ( x − 9 )
we will first of all open the brackets and then evaluate for the value of x by combining the like terms.
from 6 ( x − 2 ) = 8 ( x − 9 )
6x -12 = 8x -72
combine the like terms
6x - 12 + 72 = 8x
-12 + 72 = 8x -6x
60 = 2x
divide both sides by the coefficient of x which is 2
60/2 = 2x/2
30 = x
x = 30
therefore the value of x in the expression 6 ( x − 2 ) = 8 ( x − 9 ) is equals to 30

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of a line is the same everywhere, so an equation can be written making use of that fact.
Cross-multiplying gives ...
2(y -5) = x -2
2y -10 = x -2 . . . eliminate parentheses
2y = x +8 . . . . . . . add 10; next, divide by 2
