Question

PLEASE HELP

Determine if the solution set for the system of equations shown is the empty set, contains one point or is infinite. x - y = 5 2x + y = 1

{}
1 solution
infinite

Answer 1

1 solution

Explanation:

slope of 1st equation is 1

slope of 2nd equation is -2

therefore the lines intersect in a single point

Answer 2

Because we don't have any set numbers for x or y, I believe that the solution set for both equations are infinite.
