Answer:
No solution
Explanation:
To eliminate is to get rid of one of the variables.
You can choose to either add each term in the equations or subtract each term in the equation.
For a variable to be eliminated, there must one pair that have the same constant with it. Each equation already has the same constant with a variable.
Try adding them.
. y - x = 15
+ y - x = 5
2y - 2x = 20 No variables were eliminated.
Try subtracting.
. y - x = 15
- y - x = 5
0y - 0x = 10 All variables were eliminated.
. 0 = 10 This is false.
This system of equations cannot be solved.
Graphically, these two lines would have the same slope and are parallel. The solution to a system is same as the point of intersection. Parallel lines never meet, never intersect, therefore there is no solution.
