Question

How many solutions does the system have?
12x−15y=18
4x−5y=6 (1 point)

Answer 1

The system of equations can be solved by using the method of elimination. We can multiply the second equation by 3 to make the coefficients of x in both equations the same.

12x - 15y = 18 (equation 1)
12x - 15y = 18 (equation 2, multiplied by 3)

Since the equations are identical, there are infinitely many solutions to this system.
