1 answer:
9514 1404 393
Answer:
one solution; (x, y) = (4/3, 11/3)
Step-by-step explanation:
The two lines described by the equations have different slopes, so there will be exactly one solution to the system of equations.
__
The slope of the line will be the coefficient of x when you solve for y. In the first equation, the slope is 2. In the second equation, you can solve for y by adding x, and dividing by 2. Then the slope of that line is found to be 1/2.
Lines with different slopes must intersect somewhere. That point of intersection is the (one) solution to the system of equations.
