You can put this solution on YOUR website!
-x+2y=-2
\n" ); document.write( "3x=6y+6
\n" ); document.write( "

- x + 2y = - 2 -------- eq (i)
\n" );
document.write( "3x = 6y + 6______3x - 6y = 6 -------- eq (ii)
\n" );
document.write( "Multiply eq (i) by - 3, and you'll notice that it's the same as eq (ii). This means that the lines are the same. 
\n" );
document.write( "Thus, this is a CONSISTENT/DEPENDENT SYSTEM, and so, there is an INFINITE number of solutions. \n" );
