Question

What is the solution of the system of equations?

Answer 1

No solution of the system of equations y = -2x + 5 and -5y = 10x + 20 ⇒ 2nd answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us revise the types of solutions of a system of linear equations

• One solution
• No solution when the coefficients of x and y in the two equations are equal and the numerical terms are different
• Infinitely many solutions when the coefficients of x , y and the numerical terms are equal in the two equations

∵ y = -2x + 5

- Add 2x to both sides

∴ 2x + y = 5 ⇒ (1)

∵ -5y = 10x + 20

- Subtract 10x from both sides

∴ -10x - 5y = 20

- Divide both sides by -5

∴ 2x + y = -4 ⇒ (2)

∵ The coefficient of x in equation (1) is 2

∵ The coefficient of x in equation (2) is 2

∴ The coefficients of x in the two equations are equal

∵ The coefficient of y in equation (1) is 1

∵ The coefficient of y in equation (2) is 1

∴ The coefficients of y in the two equations are equal

∵ The numerical term in equation (1) is 5

∵ The numerical term in equation (2) is -4

∴ The numerical terms are different

From the 2nd rule above

∴ No solution of the system of equations

No solution of the system of equations y = -2x + 5 and -5y = 10x + 20
