Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution by substitution method

3x-4y=8

and 18x-5y=10

Suppose,

3x-4y=8→(1)

and 18x-5y=10→(2)

Taking equation (1), we have

3x-4y=8

⇒3x=4y+8

⇒x=( 4y+8)/ 3 →(3)

Putting x= (4y+8 )/3 in equation (2), we get

18x-5y=10

18( (4y+8) /3) -5y=10

⇒24y+48-5y=10

⇒19y+48=10

⇒19y=10-48

⇒19y= -38

⇒y=- 38 /19

⇒y= -2→(4)

Now, Putting y=-2 in equation (3), we get

x=4y+8

x= (4(-2)+8) /3

⇒x= (-8+8)/ 3

⇒x= 0/ 3

⇒x=0

∴x=0 and y= -2

Why do systems of nonlinear equations sometimes have more than one solution

Mice21 [21]

Answer:

System of two linear equations can't have exactly two solutions. Reason is that when we have two straight lines,they can only intersect at one point of intersection,no more. Or let's see if lines are equivalent,then they have infinitely many solutions,because any point on line can be solution for the system.

I think it's B and D because both of them will give you the same answer which is 2.71 but turn it into fraction.
