Question

How many solutions does this linear system have?

Answer 1

Answer:

B (2.5, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - y = 5 (multiply all by 4)

8x- 4y = 20

-8x - 4y = - 20

eliminate the 4y

8x- 4y = 20

-8x - 4y = - 20

-------------------- –

16x = 40

x = 40/16 = 2.5

now we substitute x with 2.5

2x - y = 5

2(2.5) - y = 5

y = 0
