Question

solve the following system of linear equations by elimination 5x+8y=1 and -5x-8y=-1 Someone please help

Answer 1

There are infinite solutions along the line 5x+8y =1

Explanation:

5x+8y=1

-5x-8y=-1

Add the two equations together

5x+8y=1

-5x-8y=-1

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

0 = 0

This means that they are the same equation

There are infinite solutions along the line 5x+8y =1
