What is the value of the y variable in the solution to the following system of equations?

3x − 6y = 3
7x − 5y = −11

−2

−3

x can be any number as there are infinitely many solutions to the system.

There is no x value as there is no solution to the system

umm, take the first equation and isolate y

anonymous · Answer

how do i do that

anonymous · Answer

$$3x=6y+3\
x=2y+1\
7(2y+1)-5y=-11\
14y+7-5y=-11\
9y=-18\
y=-2\
3x+12=3\
x=-3$$
