Answer:

D

Explanation:

Given the 2 equations

4x - Ay = 15 → (1)

- 4x + 6y = B → (2)

The system will have infinitely many solutions if the equations are equal

Multiply (2) by - 1

4x - 6y = - B

Equations are now equal, thus equate coefficients of relevant terms

- Ay = 6y ⇒ A = - 6

- B = 15 ⇒ B = - 15

Thus A = - 6, B = - 15 → D
