Question

Part 1:
If you were solving a system of equations and you came to a statement like 1 = 3, what do you know about the solution(s) to this system?

Part 2:
Solve the following system and show all of your work.
x − 2y = 14
x + 3y = 9

Answer 1

please help me

Answer 2

Part 1: No solution
Part 2: Use cancellation.

Answer 3

1. no solution
2. x - 2y = 14 --> x = 2y + 14
now sub 2y + 14 in for x in the 2nd equation to solve for y. Once y is found,sub that back into the 1st equation to solve for x.

Answer 4

part 1
there are no solutions

part 2
use elimination:

subtract equations to eliminate x:
-2y - 3y = 14 - 9
-5y = 5
y = -1
now substitute y = -1 into the first equation

x - 2(-1) = 14

and now its easy to find value of x

Answer 5

The second problem can be solved with substitution or elimination, depending on which one you want to use

Answer 6

well can do it so i can know how to do it
