3x+4y=33

2x+y=17 ➡ y=-2x+17
2x+(17-2x)=17
2x+17-2x=17
2x-2x+17=17
17=17
Is it Infinitely many solutions?​

Answer:

YES

Explanation:

3x+4y=33

2x+y=17 ➡ y=-2x+17

2x+(17-2x)=17

2x+17-2x=17

2x-2x+17=17

17=17

same number on both sides means Infinitely many solutions

:0)

Yes, the answer to the system is infinitely many solutions as the solution 17=17 is reflexive.
