Consider this system of equations. -20y + 42x = 28 20y - 42x = -28 Would this be infinite solutions or no solutions?

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

@Nnesha

OpenStudy (trojanpoem):

Infinite

Nnesha (nnesha):

try to solve the equations solve for x and y if you get x=something ,, y=something then there is a solution if you get equal sides at the end then infinite many solution something like 2=3 would be no solution bec both sides aren't equal

OpenStudy (trojanpoem):

This equations are the same with scalar ( -1 )

OpenStudy (trojanpoem):

As Nnesha said or you could use matrix rank for more complex equations

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

I would get 0y + 0x = 0.

Nnesha (nnesha):

okay 0 times y = ? 0 times x=?

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

both of them would equal to 0 ?

Nnesha (nnesha):

yes right |dw:1452353154071:dw|
