Question

PLEASE HELP:
3x - 2y = 5
-6x + 4y = 7

Answer 1

Oh, solve the system with ELIMINATION!!

Answer 2

so, what do you think from the previous explanation by mathstudent55 then?

Answer 3

In the first equation
3x = 5 + 2y
or
x = (5+2y)/3
Now put this x value in the second equation! :D

Answer 4

@jdoe0001 I think it would be no solution.. because it would be 0=7. Idk if I'm right.

Answer 5

you're correct, because both cancel out

Answer 6

3x - 2y = 5
-6x + 4y = 7
---------------------
\(\bf y = \cfrac{3}{2}x -5\\
y = \cfrac{3}{2}x+7\)

notice the slopes, thus they're parallel, they never touch, thus no solution

Answer 7

well, \(\bf y = \cfrac{3}{2}x -5\\
y = \cfrac{3}{2}x+\cfrac{7}{4}\)

missed something before, but the slopes are the same, and thus it's so

Answer 8

ack, more typos

Answer 9

\(\bf y = \cfrac{3}{2}x -\cfrac{5}{2}\\
y = \cfrac{3}{2}x+\cfrac{7}{4}\)

Answer 10

@jdoe0001 omg, i see it now, thank you so much. everyone elses replies confused me. thank you math god/goddess

Answer 11

yw

Answer 12

i might have alot more questions for you. how can i make sure you answer them?

Answer 13

btw, just correcting my self it would be 0+0 = 12, which is not a solution. RIGHTT?
