Answer:
Hey there!
The first equation has no solutions, as it is parallel lines.
The second equation has infinitely many solutions, as it is basically the same line, and the two lines intersect at infinite points.
The third equation is just one solution.
Let me know if this helps :)

Multiply the first equation by -2. It turns into 4x+18y=50 and the other one stays -4x-9y=-23. Then you "eliminate" the equations by "adding" them. Set it up like this:
4x+18y=50
+
-4x-9y=-23
4x-4x= 0. 18y-9y= 9y and 50-23= 27
SO: 9y= 27 and y= 3
And then you plug that in to one equation: 4x +18(3)= 50. 4x= 50-(18*3)
4x= -4, so x=-1.
Plug it back in to check!
Hope this helps. Happy solving! :)
