I am dumb,plz zend help.

Percy said that any real number for k would cause the system of equations to have no solution. Explain the error in Percy’s statement.

6x + 4y = 14,
3x + 2y = k

I think that it is 9 because 14-10=4 so 3+2+4=9 I’m not that sure tho let me know if I’m wrong

Answer:

Sample response:

k = 7 proves the equations are equivalent and, therefore, have infinitely many solutions. That is illustrated by the fact that multiplying 2 by 3x +2y = 7 will create the equivalent of 6x + 4y =14.
