Question

Classify the system of equations and identify the number of solutions

Answer 1

(B) Consistent; Dependent; Infinite

Explanation:

We have:

(1) 35x + 5y = 15

(2) y = 3 - 7x

If we isolate y in the first equation, we have:

35x + 5y = 15

5y = 15 - 35x

y = 15/5 - 35/5x

y = 3 - 7x

As we can see, equations (1) and (2) represent the same graph.

So, this q
