y=-2x+3

Answer 1

To solve the given systems of equations, we will analyze each system and determine the number of solutions for each.

System 1:

1. \( 2x - 2y = -4 \)
2. \( y = x + 2 \)

First, let's rearrange the first equation to solve for \(y\): \[ 2x - 2y = -4 \] \[ -2y = -4 - 2x \] \[ 2y = 4 + 2x \] \[ y = 2 + x \]

Now, comparing the two equations:

• From the first equation rearranged: \( y = x + 2 \)
• From the second equation: \( y = x + 2 \)

Since both lines are the same, there are infinitely many solutions.

System 2:

1. \( y = 3x - 2 \)
2. \( 2x + 3y = 16 \)

Now we can substitute the first equation into the second:

• Substitute \( y \) in the second equation: \[ 2x + 3(3x - 2) = 16 \] \[ 2x + 9x - 6 = 16 \] \[ 11x - 6 = 16 \] \[ 11x = 22 \] \[ x = 2 \]

Now substitute back to find \(y\): \[ y = 3(2) - 2 = 6 - 2 = 4 \]

Thus, there is one solution at the point \( (2, 4) \).

System 3:

1. \( y = -2x - 7 \)
2. \( y = -2x + 3 \)

Comparing the two equations:

• From the first equation: \( y = -2x - 7 \)
• From the second equation: \( y = -2x + 3 \)

Since the slopes (-2) are equal but the y-intercepts are different (-7 and +3), these lines are parallel. Thus, there is no solution.

Summary:

• System 1: Infinitely many solutions
• System 2: One solution
• System 3: No solution

Matching Systems to Number of Solutions:

• Infinitely many solutions: for \(2x - 2y = -4\) and \(y = x + 2\)
• One solution: for \(y = 3x - 2\) and \(2x + 3y = 16\)
• No solution: for \(y = -2x - 7\) and \(y = -2x + 3\)

Please match the systems accordingly in your input.
