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

This is what I put. Is it correct?

Part 1: 1=3 is a false statement which indicates no solution.

Part 2: x − 2y = 14
x + 3y = 9

x - 2y = 14
+ 2y + 2y
x = 14 + 2y

(14 + 2y) + 3y = 9
14 + 2y + 3y = 9
14 + 5y = 9
-14 -14
5y = -5
y = -5

x + 3(-5)= 9
x + -15 = 9
+ 15 + 15
x = 24

Solution: x=24, y=-5

Answer 2

Did you just answer your own question, or do you still need help?

Answer 3

I want to know if it's correct.

Answer 4

part 1 is right
u must review the part 2 must be a mistake

Answer 5

And yes, anything is obviously true is all real numbers, anything not true is no solution. Ok i'll check it.

Answer 6

see this part
5y = -5
y = -5

Answer 7

Yeah.
