Select the correct choice below and, if necessary, fill in the answer box within your choice.
A.
The solution set is {__} (Simplify your answer. Type an ordered pair.)
B. There are infinitely many solutions. The solution set is {(x,y)|__}.
(Simplify your answer. Type an equation.)
C. There is no solution. The solution set is Ø. Answer by MathLover1(20849) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! ....eq.1 ......eq.2
--------------------------
start with
....solve for .......a)
then do same with
.............b)
from a) and b) we have
........solve for ...........both sides multiply by
