To determine how many solutions there are for the equations \(3y = 3x + 6\) and \(y = x + 2\), we should first rewrite both equations in slope-intercept form (\(y = mx + b\)) for easier comparison.

  1. First equation: \[ 3y = 3x + 6 \] Dividing all terms by 3: \[ y = x + 2 \]

  2. Second equation: \[ y = x + 2 \]

Now we see that both equations simplify to the same equation: \[ y = x + 2 \]

Since both equations represent the same line, they have an infinite number of solutions (every point on the line is a solution).

Thus, the answer is Infinite solutions.

you sure

Yes, I am sure.

To recap:

  • The first equation, when simplified, becomes \(y = x + 2\).
  • The second equation is already in the same form, \(y = x + 2\).

Since both equations represent exactly the same line (same slope and same y-intercept), every point on that line is a solution to both equations.

This means the system of equations has infinite solutions. If you have any further questions about this or need more clarification, feel free to ask!
