Determine if the following system of equations has no solutions, infinitely many
solutions or exactly one solution.
5x + 3y = 9
-10x – 6y = -18

Respuesta :

Answer:

The system has infinitely many solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

[tex]5x+3y=9[/tex] ----> equation A

[tex]-10x-6y=-18[/tex] ----> equation B

Multiply by -2 both sides equation A

[tex]-2(5x+3y)=-2(9)[/tex]

[tex]-10x-6y=-18[/tex] ----> equation C

Compare equation B and equation C

The equations are identical (is the same line)

therefore

The system has infinitely many solutions

Is a consistent dependent system
