Hi, there-- PROBLEM: Identify the solution (s) of the system of equation, if any: -6x-2y=18 2y=-6x-18 SOLUTION: Rearrange the second equation. 2y=-6x-18 --> 6x + 2y = -18 Multiply each term in the first equation by -1. -6x-2y=18 --> 6x + 2y = -18 We see that the equations are equivalent (i.e. On the coordinate grid, they are the same line.) This is called a dependent, consistent system and it has infinitely many solutions (all the points on the line.) Hope this helps, Mrs. Figgy math.in.the.vortex@gmail.com
