Question 315336: solved by eliminator method. 5x + 6y = 1; 10x +12y = 2

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
1.+5x+%2B+6y+=+1
2.+10x+%2B12y+=+2
Mutliply eq. 1 by (-2) and add to equation 2 to eliminate x.
-10x-12y%2B10x%2B12y=-4%2B2
0=-2
The system is inconsistent.
There is no solution, the lines are parallel.
