This is an easy one.

Which value, when placed in the box, would result in a system of equations with infinitly many solutions? Y=2x - 5 2y-4x=

Nezavi [6.7K]

Given:

The system of equations is

$y=2x-5$

$2y-4x=?$

To find:

The missing value for which the given system of equations have infinitely many solutions.

Solution:

Let the missing value be k.

We have,

$y=2x-5$

$2y-4x=k$

Taking all the terms on the left side, the given equations can be rewritten as

$-2x+y+5=0$

$-4x+2y-k=0$

The system of equations $a_1x+b_1y+c_1=0$ and $a_2x+b_2y+c_2=0$ have infinitely many solutions if

$\dfrac{a_1}{a_2}=\dfrac{b_1}{b_2}=\dfrac{c_1}{c_2}$

We have,

$a_1=-2,b_1=1,c_1=5$

$a_2=-4,b_2=2,c_2=-k$

Now,

$\dfrac{-2}{-4}=\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{5}{-k}$

$\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{5}{-k}$

$\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{5}{-k}$

On cross multiplication, we get

$-k=10$

$k=-10$

Therefore, the missing value is -10.
