Question

What is the solution to the equations?
4x+2y=6
2x+y=3

Answer 1

multiple choice?

Answer 2

your looking for a solution for x and y

i'd do this by elimination

4x+2y=6
2x+y=3<<<multiply by -2

-4x-2y=-6
4x+2y=6

add the, what do you get?

Answer 3

I just don't get this stuff at all. I believe the 2 equations end up having the same answer though

Answer 4

exactly!

infinite solutions

Answer 5

Y= 3-2x and x = 3/2-1/2y

Answer 6

if they are the same line, when graphed, they will infinite intersections.

therefore

infinite solutions

Answer 7

ok dtan. thanks for your math insight, you've been helpful.
