What is the value of the x variable in the solution to the following system of equations? 3x + y = 6 6x + 2y = 8 zero 4 x can be any number as there are infinitely many solutions to the system. There is no x value as there is no solution to the system.
the equations(1) times 2.....you will know how to choice options
huh?
please help
solve for x in any of the two equations then what you get apply it to the other equation
y=6-3x
6x+2(6-3x)=8
solve for x
do you plus 2?
6x+12-6x=8
oh
and then?
you are left with 12=8
thats not an answer though
read your answers and see the end result.
is it There is no x value as there is no solution to the system?
yup
thank you!

oh
parallel lines
@UnkleRhaukus check last number after = they are not parallel but mm they are confusing the solution lol
3x + y = 6 (i) y = -3x + 6 slope is -3, y intercept is 6 6x + 2y = 8 (ii) 2y = -6x + 8 y = -3x + 4 slope is -3, y intercept is 4 straight lines with the same slope but different y intercept are parallel. There is no point that can appear on both lines.
Answer: There is no x value as there is no solution to the system.
