Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The given system of equations is expressed as
3x + y = 9 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -1
3x = 9 - y - - - - - - - - - - - - - -2
To apply the method of elimination, we would rearrange equation 2 so that it would take the form of equation 1. Therefore, we would add y to the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation, it becomes
3x + y = 9 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -3
Subtracting equation 3 from equation 1, it becomes
0 = 0
The equations have infinitely many solutions because if we input any values of x and y that satisfies the first equation, those values will also satisfy the second equation.
