Answer:

There are infinitely many solutions.

Explanation:

3x + 2y = 7

-9x - 6y = -21

Now multiply the first equation by 3

3 × 3x + 2y = 7 ➡ 9x + 6y = 21 Now subtract second equation from first equation

9x + 6y - 9x - 6y = 21 - 21

0 = 0

The equation has infinitely many solutions meaning whatever value you write instead of x and y there will be solution.
