y = 2x + 3 2y = 4x + 6 The system of equations has _____ solution(s). no one infinite

OpenStudy (kc_kennylau):

Graph them out first :) (you can use desmos to do so) If the two points: Are parallel: no solution Intersect at a point: one solution Coincide: infinitely many solutions

OpenStudy (kc_kennylau):

If you don't wanna graph them out, you can use the slopes of the two lines: Slopes are different: one solution Slopes are the same, y-intercept same: infinitely many solutions Slopes are the same, y-intercept different: no solution

OpenStudy (kc_kennylau):

P. S. The latter method is the same as the former method, except for the lack of the need of using a graph.

OpenStudy (kc_kennylau):

To know the slope and the y-intercept, you can change the equations to slope-intercept form (that means making y the subject)

i just need the answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

again...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes
