do the following systems of equations have one solution, no solution, or infinite solutions?\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2y-6x=16
\n" ); document.write( "-3x+y=8
\n" ); document.write( "~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\r

\r\n" );
document.write( "Both given equations are equivalent to this one\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "    y = 3x + 8.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Therefore, the given system of equations has infinitely many solutions.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "You can take any value of 'x' and calculate the corresponding value of 'y'.\r\n" );
document.write( "Then the pair (x,y) will be one of infinitely many possible solutions.\r\n" );
