think there is some typo here
OpenStudy (pulsified333):
Let me fix the equations
OpenStudy (pulsified333):
@satellite73 I fixed it

OpenStudy (pulsified333):
infinitely many
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes you have got only one line.
OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):
ok, why do you think infinitely many is the answer?
OpenStudy (pulsified333):
because if you try to solve for x and y then they cancel.

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):
ok, that works, another way to notice that , is to see that the second eq is just the first multiplied by 2
OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):
it will save you time in the long run
OpenStudy (pulsified333):
how do you find what y=?
OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):
pick one eq, and have just y on one side
OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):
ie, put it in slope intercept form
