Question

The system of equatios is solved using the linear combination method

1/2x4y=8 -2(1/2x+4y=8) -x-8y=-16
3x+24y - 12 1/3(3x+24y= 12) x+8y=4
0=-12
what does 0 = -12 mean regarding the solution to the system?​

Answer 1

Answer: There are no solutions to the system because the equations represent parallel lines.
