Question

What is the solution to the following system?
-3x - y = -3
9x + 3y = 9

Answer 1

Something's not quite right ... :)

Answer 2

there isn't a solution o_o

Answer 3

For you see, if you multiply (-3) to both sides of the first equation, you end up with the second equation

IE, these are the same lines :)

Answer 4

so there is no solution correct?

Answer 5

I see what you mean though.

Answer 6

i think we should say that they have infinite solutions not no solutions... but the underlying explanation is still the same...

Answer 7

alright.. Its still the same concept.. just differently worded
