Question

What is the value of the x variable in the solution to the following system of equations?

3x + y = 6
6x + 2y = 8

anonymous · Answer

no solution

precal · Answer

if you solve for y on both equations
you will notice that the slopes are the same
that means that the lines are parallel
parallel lines have no solution since they do not cross at all

hope that helps you

triciaal · Answer

there is no solution to the system of equations. 
agree they are parallel lines. 
however the question asked for the value of the x variable and therefore I think the answer is any real number

precal · Answer

no the solution is not any real number
There is not x value that will satisfy the system of equations.
