Question 17 of 25

how many solutions does the following system of equations have?
y=5/2x+2
2y=5x+4
a. zero
b. one
c.infinitely many
d. two

Answer 1

c

Explanation:

y =
`(5)/(2)` x + 2 → (1)

2y = 5x + 4 ( divide through by 2 )

y =
`(5)/(2)` x + 2 → (2)

the 2 equations are the same and will have infinitely many solutions
