D. infinitely

Answer 1

@Ellia201 @emc726 @AaronAndyson

Answer 2

hold up

Answer 3

What math is this?

Answer 4

no i think its two only

Answer 5

13/9 and 8/9

Answer 6

use elimination
graphing
matrices
or substitution
which one is easy for u ???

Answer 7

so c

Answer 8

its Algebra 1

Answer 9

Ok I take algebra 1 and I recognize this

Answer 10

I think I know how to do it one second...

Answer 11

2x-y=2 sove for y ..... y=2x-2
-x+5y=3
-x+2x-2=3 ===> x=5
y=2*5-2=8

Answer 12

i swear to god if my answer is right then uall are wasting ur time

Answer 13

These equations are for 2 straight lines.

If two lines are parallel they do not intersect, and therefore there is no solution to the 'system'

If th ey are not parallel then the can only intersect at ONE point.

You can tell if they are parallel - convert them both to the form
y=mx + c

m is th gradient - if they have the same gradient then they ARE parallel

Answer 14

2 equal signs?

Answer 15

@MSM6205
It is IMPOSSIBLE for two straight lines ot intersect at TWO places.

Your answer CANNOT be correct.

Since oyu gave NO explanation we will never know where you went wrong.

Answer 16

like what @Nnesha

Answer 17

look at ur answer choices and question again

seem like** there is something wrong

Answer 18

@MrNood first of all usually my answers are not wrong second of all u can check this up online on mathway.com

Answer 19

@MSM6205
'Usually' does not matter

two straight lines cannot cross in two places

Answer 20

bec both lines are not parallel
after solving any method either elimination substitution or graphing
the answer i got is not up there

Answer 21

@MSM6205
If oyu care to show how you think oyu got 2 solutions then I will show you wher you went wrong
