multiply first equation by 3 and add to 3nd

9x+6y=21

<u>-9x-6y=-21 +</u>

0x+0y=0


0=0

since we got a true statement regardless of the values of x and y, there are infinitely many solutions

also, if you divide the 2nd equation by -3, you will see that the equations are the same

Solution:

There are Infinitely many solutions.

Explanation:

We have been given the system of equations

3x+2y=7.......(1)\\\\-9x-6y=-21......(2)

In elimination method, we multiply any of the equation by some constant and then add/subtract the equations to eliminate any variable x or y.

Let us multiply equation 1 by 3

9x+6y=21.......(3)\\\\-9x-6y=-21......(4)

Add equations 3 and 4, we get

9x-9x+6y-6y=21-21\\\\0=0

We got 0=0, which is always true.

Hence, there are Infinitely many solutions.

C is the correct option.

A, B, C, and D have the coordinates (-8, 1), (-2, 4), (-3, -1), and (-6, 5), respectively. Which sentence about the points is tr
DedPeter [7]
For this case we observe that the lines AB (red) and CD (purple) are cut at one point.
 We observe that the slopes of both lines are different (they are not reciprocal opposites).
 Therefore, the lines are not perpendicular.
 Answer:
 
AB and CD are intersecting lines but are not perpendicular.

Which set of coordinates is a solution of the equation 2x - y =11
mina [271]
Just substitute any number for one variable to find the value of the other.
Eg:
2x-y=11
2(1)-y=11
2-y=11
-2 -2
-y=9
-y/-1=9/-1
y=-9
So (1,-9) is a solution to the equation.
Follow the steps and find many more solutions.
Hope I help you.
