You can put this solution on YOUR website!
1) 4x – 3y = 1
\n" ); document.write( "2) -12x + 9y = 5\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Multiply 1st by 3 to get:
\n" ); document.write( "3) 12x-9y=3\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Add this to 2nd to get:
\n" ); document.write( " 0x+0y=8
\n" ); document.write( " 0=8
\n" ); document.write( "This is a contradition.
\n" ); document.write( "The lines are geometrically parallel.
\n" ); document.write( "There is no solution for the system of equations.\r
