Question

Solve the system of equations by substitution:3y - 6x = 248 + 2x = yA.infinite solutionsB.(2,12)C.no solutionD.(0,8)

Answer 1

Given the equations:

3y - 6x = 24..............................1

8 + 2x = y..................................2

Substitute (8 + 2x) for y in equation 1.

3(8 + 2x) - 6x = 24

24 + 6x - 6x = 24

24 = 24

Since, we have 24 = 24, we can say the system of equations have infinite solutions.

ANSWER:

A. infinite solutions
