Question 102918: Solve each of the following systems by addition. If a unique solution does not exist, state whether the system is inconsistent or dependent.
x+5y=10
-2x-10y=-20

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x+5y=10
-2x-10y=-20
%28-2x-10y%29%2F-2=-20%2F-2
x%2B5y=10
This is the same as the equation x+5y=10.

This means that there is an infinite no. of solutions
