Algebra.Com's Answer #321615 by algebrahouse.com(1659)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! x + 6y = 9 \n" ); document.write( "x = 2 - 6y\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2 - 6y + 6y = 9 {substituted 2 - 6y, in for x, into top equation} \n" ); document.write( "2 = 9 {combined like terms} \n" ); document.write( "= no solution {the variable disappeared and you got a false statement}\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "When the variable disappears and you get a false statement, such as 0 = 3, \n" ); document.write( "then thee is \"no solution\". This means, the two lines would not intersect. \n" ); document.write( "In other words, the two equations, when graphed, would create parallel lines.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "When the variable disappears and you get a true statement, such as 0 = 0, \n" ); document.write( "then there are \"infinite solutions\". This means, the two lines intersect \n" ); document.write( "in an infinite number of points. In other words, the two equations are equivalent, \n" ); document.write( "and would create the same line when graphed. \n" ); document.write( " For more help from me, visit: www.algebrahouse.com \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
