2. How many solutions does this system have? 2x + y = 3 6x = 9 – 3y (1 point)
Well,you can solve it and check. There are a number of methods you can use 1)Elimination 2)Substitution
I was not in class for this whole past week. I have been very ill. I dont know what any of that means.
Well lets see it like this 2x+y=3---(1) 6x+3y=9--(2) Multiply Eq(1) by 2. And, then subract these equations.
Okay, I am still kind of confused. Im sorry. /:
Did you Multiply Eq(1) by 2,What did you get.
No, hold on I will do that now.
ok.
Take your time...
I am lost. I am horrible at math. ...
What did you get ?
Nothing. . . /':
I can't do it. It is all giberish to me...
So, you are doing something you dont know. Lets start working on your basics then or Lets use the other method what do you think ?
Yes, and it doesnt matter.
X=3/2 and y=0
@chow Giving direct answers is not allowed Please check the CoC- http://openstudy.com/code-of-conduct
2x + y = 3--(1) 6x = 9 – 3y--(2) (1)=) y=3-2x---(3) Now put Eq(3) or y in Eq(2)
That wasnt a direct answer... The answer will be either, 1, none, 2 or infinite. So @chow is okay..
thanks Kierstan...I don't have energy to type total derivation..
You're welcome.
@KierstanDanielle If you have the options then you can actually try putting your answer options and checking if L.H.S=R.H.S If L.H.S=R.H.S then that is the correct answer option.
@chow I hope you understood what i said.
yes..
What does L.H.S. and R.H.S mean?
Left hand side = Right hand side
oh. hahha
@chow Thanks a lot for understanding.
Okay, I think I might have the answer. Thanks for helping !
Your'e welcome.
