3x-8y=5
-8y=-3x+5
y=-3x/-8+5/-8
y=3x/8-5/8 (red line).
-----------------------
4x-2y=11
-2y=-4x+11
y=-4x/-2+11/-2
y=2x-11/2 (green line).
-----------------------
(graph 300x200 pixels, x from -6 to 5, y from -10 to 10, of TWO functions 3x/8 -5/8 and 2x -11/2).
Solution (3,1/2)
*****************************************************************
4x-6y=2
-6y=-4x+2
y=-4x/-6+2/-6
y=2x/3-1/3 (red line)
-----------------------
2x-3y=1
-3y=-2x+1
y=-2x/-3-1/3
y=2x/3-1/3 (green line).
(graph 300x200 pixels, x from -6 to 5, y from -10 to 10, of TWO functions 2x/3 -1/3 and 2x/3 +1/3).
Duplicate lines therefore no unique solution for x & y.
