1.
$-3y=-3x-9 \\
y=x+3 \\ \\
\hbox{substitute x+3 for y in the first equation:} \\
-3(x+3)=-3x-9 \\
-3x-9=-3x-9 \\
-3x+3x=-9+9 \\
0=0 \\
always \ true \\ \\
\boxed{\hbox{infinitely many solutions}} \Rightarrow "infinite \ solutions"$

2.
$y=x+4 \\
y=3x+6 \\ \\
y=y \\
\boxed{x+4=3x+6} \Leftarrow \hbox{the step} \\
x-3x=6-4 \\
-2x=2 \\
x=\frac{2}{-2} \\
x=-1 \\ \\
y=x+4 \\
y=-1+4 \\
y=3 \\ \\
(x,y)=(-1,3)$

Econo motel charges $260 for 4 nights. At that rate, how much would 7 nights cost

faltersainse [42]

Divide the cost for 4 nights by 4 to get cost per night.

260/4 = 65 per night.

Multiply cost per night by 7:

65 x 7 = 455

It would cost $455 for 7 nights.
