Question

Solve the system of equations using the method of elimination by addition

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation

`\begin{gathered} 2x+3y=7---equation1 \\ 4x+6y=15----equation2 \end{gathered}`

To solve the question using the elimination method

We will have to multiply equation 1 by -2 so that we can eliminate x

`\begin{gathered} -4x-6y=-14 \\ 4x+6y=15 \end{gathered}`

Simplifying further by addition

`0+0=1`

Hence, we will have

`0=1`

Hence, we have no solution

The answer is no solution
