Given:

The system of equations is

y=2x-5

2y-4x=?

To find:

The missing value for which the given system of equations have infinitely many solutions.

Solution:

Let the missing value be k.

We have,

y=2x-5

2y-4x=k

Taking all the terms on the left side, the given equations can be rewritten as

-2x+y+5=0

-4x+2y-k=0

The system of equations a_1x+b_1y+c_1=0 and a_2x+b_2y+c_2=0 have infinitely many solutions if

\dfrac{a_1}{a_2}=\dfrac{b_1}{b_2}=\dfrac{c_1}{c_2}

We have,

a_1=-2,b_1=1,c_1=5

a_2=-4,b_2=2,c_2=-k

Now,

\dfrac{-2}{-4}=\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{5}{-k}

\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{5}{-k}

\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{5}{-k}

On cross multiplication, we get

-k=10

k=-10

Therefore, the missing value is -10.

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

B and E

Step-by-step explanation:

(26x+2)+2=2(x+3)+1 - solution = 1/8

2x+3(x+5)=5(x-3) - NO SOLUTION

4x+3=x+12 - solution = 3

4 - (2x + 5) = {(-4x - 2) - solution = -1/2

5(x + 4) - X= 4(x + 5) - 1​ - NO SOLUTION
