Question

3

Select the correct answer.
Which statement best describes the solution to this system of equations?
3x + y= 17
x+2y= 49
OA.
It has no solution.
B.
It has infinite solutions.
O c.
It has a single solution: x = 15, y= 17.
OD
It has a single solution: x= -3, y = 26.

Answer 1

X= –3, y=26

Explanation:

3X+Y=17====> –2(3X+Y)=–34===> –6X–2Y=–34

X+2Y=49

Aight so let's head to the sum

–5X=15===> X=–3

–3+2Y=49===> 2Y=52===> Y=26
