Question

I need help, please
and can someone explain so I can stop posting so many of these?

Answer 1

a1x + b1y + c1 = 0

a2x + b2y + c2 = 0

Here a1, b1, c1, a2, b2, c2 are all real numbers.

Note that, a12 + b12 ≠ 0, a22 + b22 ≠ 0

Explanation:

How many solutions does the following system have?

y = -2x – 4

y = 3x + 3

Solution:

Given y = -2x – 4

y = 3x + 3

Rewriting to the general form

-2x – y – 4 = 0

3x – y + 3 = 0

Comparing the coefficients,

(a1/a2) = -⅔

(b1/b2) = -1/-1 = 1

(a1/a2) ≠ (b1/b2)

Hence, this system of equations will have only one

Answer 2

it's infinitely many bc the equations have the same line
