Answer:

The system of equation has infinite solution.

C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given system of equation

2x + y = 3

6x = 9 – 3y

First we re-write the second equation in standard form

So, we add 3y both sides

6x+3y=9 ---------------- (2)

2x+y = 3----------------- (1)

Multiply equation 1 by 3

3(2x)+3y = 3(3)

6x+3y=9

Subtract new equation from 2nd equation

6x-6x + 3y-3y = 9-9

0=0

LHS=RHS

This is true statement. If statement is true then infinite number of many solution.

Hence, The system of equation has infinite solution.

2x + y = 3
6x = 9 - 3y
↓
2x + y = 3
6x + 3y = 9

3(2x + y = 3)
3(2x) + 3(y) = 3(3)
6x + 3y = 9

There is an infinite number of solutions in the system (the answer is C).

Find a solution to the linear equation −2x−2y=8 by filling in the boxes with a valid value of x and y.Provide your answer below:

inna [77]

Given

$-2x-2y=8$

To find a solution for the linear equation, the first step is to write the equation in slope-intercept form:

-Pass the x-term to the right side of the equation by applying the opposite operation to both sides of the equal sign:

$\begin{gathered} -2x+2x-2y=8+2x \\ -2y=2x+8 \end{gathered}$

-Divide both sides by -2:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{-2y}{-2}=\frac{2x}{-2}+\frac{8}{-2} \\ y=-x-4 \end{gathered}$

Once you have expressed the equation of the line in slope-intercept form, replace it with any value for x and calculate the corresponding value of y, for example, x=2

$\begin{gathered} y=-(2)-4 \\ y=-2-4 \\ y=-6 \end{gathered}$

One solution for the linear equation is x=2 and y=-6, you can check the solution by replacing the values on the original equation, with both values the result should be 8:

$\begin{gathered} -2x-2y \\ -2\cdot2-2\cdot(-6) \\ -4+12=8 \end{gathered}$

As you can see the values are a valid solution for the linear equation.

So the solution is:

$-2(2)-2(-6)=8$
