Hi

Solve the following systems of two linear equations

 4x-2y =2

-2x+ y  =-1 Multiplying second equation by 2



 4x-2y =2

-4x+2y =-2

 0 = 0 there is NO solution to this system of equations.

Note:  Graph indicates equations represent parallell lines that do not intersect.

 Solve the following systems of two linear equations. 

4x-2y =2

-2x+y =-1 

-------------

Multiply the 2nd equation by 2 to get:

-4x+2y = -2

----

Add that to the 1st equation to get:

0=0

-----

Conclusion: The two equations are the same.

The system has an infinite number of solutions:

all points of the form (x,2x-1) where x is 

any Real Number.
