OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh wait nvm this is calculus and vectors. wait shouldn't it be infinite solution because all you have to do is multiply the 1st equation by 3 to get the second equation?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

AHH didnt copy.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the lines are overlaping

OpenStudy (haleyelizabeth2017):

nope because it would be +9x not -9x.....
