Question

Consider the system of equations shown.

Y=2x
y-2x=0
What is the solution to this system of equations?

A. There is no solution
B. The only solution is (0,0)
C. The only solution is (0, 2)
D. There are infinitely many solutions

Answer 1

D. There are infinitely many solutions

Explanation:

Solving the second equation for y gives you the first equation. This is a dependent system. Any solution of one equation is also a solution to the other one. There are infinitely many solutions.
