Question

Solving special systems {y=1/2x+4 {-1/2x+y=-5

Answer 1

Answer:

no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = $\frac{1}{2}$ x + 4 → (1)

- $\frac{1}{2}$ x + y = - 5 → (2)

Substitute y = $\frac{1}{2}$ x + 4 into (2)

- $\frac{1}{2}$ x + $\frac{1}{2}$ x + 4 = - 5 , that is

4 = - 5 ← not possible

This indicates the system has no solution
