First Step: Simplify each equation as much as you can. Do this by dividing the dividing the equations by the GCF of all the coefficients.

anonymous · Answer

is it infinite many

studygurl14 · Answer

Sorry, no its not.

REVISED INSTRUCTIONS:
I would actually divide each equation by just the x-coefficent. So for the first equation, divide by 6. And for the second, divide by 2.
