Question

c/1998 + d/1998 = 1/2
Find the values of c and d.

Answer 1

infinite number of values for c and d

Answer 2

This is one equation in two unknowns. There are infinitely many values for c and d that make the equation true.

Answer 3

\[c+d=999\]

Answer 4

So whatever values you get, would they be marked correct? :O

Answer 5

it's a line ... any point on this line would be your solution, and a line has infinite points

Answer 6

@emcrazy14 -- not just any values.

Any values of c and d such that (c+d) / 1998 = 1/2

Answer 7

Okay. I got c=998.001 and d=0.999. Are these correct?

Answer 8

Test those values by putting them into your original equation. :)

Answer 9

try to get integer values, for best sake

Answer 10

though that is also correct

Answer 11

But how do I get the integer values? @experimentX

Answer 12

put x=1, get y=998
