Solve the system of equations {y=15x+9

y=1/2x−20.

What is the solution to the system?

Enter your answer as an ordered pair, like this: (42, 53)

If your answer includes one or more fractions, use the / symbol to separate numerators and denominators. For example, if your answer is (4253,6475),
enter it like this: (42/53, 64/75)

If there is no solution, enter "no"; if there are infinitely many solutions, enter "inf."

Answer: Therefore, without any other equations or information, we cannot determine a solution to the system. The solution is "no".

Explanation:

The given equation is y = (1/2)x - 20.

To find the solution to the system, we need another equation or set of equations. The given equation represents a linear equation in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Without any additional information or equations, we cannot determine a specific solution to the system. The given equation represents a single line in the coordinate plane.

If we are looking for the intersection point between this line and another line or curve, we would need additional equations to form a system of equations.

Therefore, without any other equations or information, we cannot determine a solution to the system. The solution is "no".
