Choose ALL that apply. Select the statement(s) that correctly describes the solution to this system of equations:

Question

8x−2y=−4
4x−y=−2

1 Solve this system by elimination since it is already in standard form and lined up nicely.

2 There is exactly one solution to this system of linear equations and it is (2, 0).

3 There are infinite solutions to this system of linear equations.

4 These lines are parallel, so there is no solution to this system of linear equations.

5 There is exactly one solution to this system of linear equations and it is (0, -2).

6 Solve this system by substitution since one of the variables is defined by the other without having to do any math.

Answer 1
