Question

lines a and b are represented by the equations given below: line a: 6x 6y = 24 line b: x y = 4 which statement is true about the solution to the set of equations? it is (24, 4). there are infinitely many solutions. it is (4, 24). there is no solution.

Answer 1

The equation of line a is obtained by multiplying the equation of line b by 4. i.e. there are linearly dependent and hence there are infinitely many solutions to the set of equations.
