Hi there!
The way that an infinite number of solutions is achieved is when the two equations, when solved together, get an answer which is just a number equal to the same number. To do this, first substitute 6x-b in for y in the second equation.



Now, we see that b needs to be equal to -3 when multiplied by -1/2. When both sides are divided by -1/2, b becomes equal to 6. Thus, b must be 6.
Check work:




Thus, as they are equal to each other, the answer is correct. b = 6.
Hope this helps!
Step 1: simplify
[3.4 ( 6 x + 2 ) +3] + 4 p -3 x
Pemdas!
6x+2=8x
3.4+3=6.4
6.4+8x=14.4
14.4x+4p=18.4xp+3= 21.4xpx
x=8
p=18.4
Other x = 21.4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
-2+y=14
-5x-7y=10
y=14+2
y=16
-5x-7(16)=10
-5x-112=10
+112 +112
-5x=122
x=-24.4
Answer: He had 14 more touchdowns than he did fumbles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1. Ok, so we need to see how many times 9 will divide into 18.
18/9=2.
Step 2. So now that we know that 9 goes into 18 two times and we know he has two fumbles for every 9 touchdowns we can multiply 2 by 2 to find out how man fumbles he had.
2*2=4
Step 3. Now to find out how many more touchdowns than fumbles he had we need to subtract his fumbles from his touchdowns.
18-4= 14. So, now we know he had 14 more touchdowns than he did fumbles.
Hope this helps!
If you're talking about PEMDAS it's Division. (Parenthesis., Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Subtraction just in case you forget)
