Question

what would the x and y points be ,I tried multiply the second one with 2 so everything got cancelled and I got 0=-5 which means no solution, am I right?

Answer 1

There is No solution

1) Let's solve this Linear System of Equations by the Elimination Method:

18x +14y = 29

-9x-7y =-17 x2

18x +14y = 29

-18x -14y = -34

------------------------

0x -0y = -5

2) Hence, as we can see there is no Solution for this system since the 1st equation is a multiple of the 2nd one.

3) Hence, the answer is No solution
