Solve using the elimination method. Show your work. If the system has no solution or an infinite number of solutions, state this.
5x – 4y = 10.5
20x – 16y = 42
----
If you multiply thru the 1st equation by 4
you will see the two equations are the same.
----
Infinite number of solutions of the form (x , (4/5)x + (10.5/5))where
x is any Real Numbers
