Question 1060442: Not sure how to type them in but the bracket is suppose to connect both numbers in one bracket!
Solve the system with the addition method:
{12x+18y= 21
{4x+6y= 7

Enter your answers as integers or as reduced fraction(s) in the form A/B. If there is no solution, type "DNE" in each blank. If there are an infinite number of solutions, specify their form in the blanks in terms of x (eg. (x, 2x-3))

No solution. If you try to solve it you'll get zeros across

.
Infinitely many solutions.

If you divide both sides of the first equation by 3, you will get an equivalent equation
4x + 6y = 7,

which is identical to the second equation.

So, the two equations are equivalent and represent, actually, SINGLE equation with two unknowns, which has INFINITELY MANY solutions.

Factor out a 3 in eq (i): 12x + 18y = 21, to get: 4x + 6y = 7 ------- eq (i).

This is IDENTICAL to eq (ii) so: 

Let no-one tell you otherwise!!
