Answer:

b=9,a=12

Step-by-step explanation:

I solved by substitution:

b = 3/4a  ---> plug this into the other equation

a + b = 21   is now    a + 3/4a = 21

Reduce: 7/4a = 21

a = 12

Now solve for b:

b=3/4a is now b=3/4(12)

b=9

Answer:

  1. x = x+1
  2. 0 = x+1
  3. x+1 = x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

1. There will be no solution if the equation is a contradiction. Usually, it is something that can be reduced to 0 = 1.

If we choose to make our equation ...

  x = x +1

Subtracting x from both sides of the equation gives ...

  0 = 1

There is no value of the variable that will make this be true.

__

2. Something that reduces to x = c will have one solution. One such equation is ...

  0 = x+1

  x = -1 . . . . subtract 1 from both sides

__

3. Something that reduces to x = x will have an infinite number of solutions.

One such equation is ...

  x+1 = x+1

Subtracting 1 from both sides gives ...

  x = x . . . . true for all values of x
