Question

Determine the solution to the following system of linear equations.

Answer 1

Answer:

no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

To put the first equation into standard form, with the coefficients mutually prime, divide it by 5:

... x - y = 4

To put the second equation into standard form, with the coefficients mutually prime and the leading coefficient positive, divide by -2:

... x - y = 2

These are inconsistent equations, hence have no solution.
