Question

What is the solution to the system of equations below? y = negative 2 x minus 6 and 2 y = negative 4 x minus 12 no solution infinitely many solutions (–3, 0) (3, –12)

Answer 1

Infinitely many solutions

Explanation:

The equation, when set up will be

2(-2x-6)=-4x-12

-4x-12=-4x-12

+12 +12 Add 12 to both sides

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

-4x=-4x Divide by -4 to both sides

0=0 You get zero equals zero

Have a good day and stay safe!

Answer 2

infinitely many solutions

Explanation:

y = -2x -6 -----------------------------------------------------------------(1)

2y = -4x - 12---------------------------------------------------------------(2)

using elimination method

multiply equation (1) by 2

2y = -4x - 12 ----------------------------------------------------------------(3)

subtract equation (3) from equation (2)

0 = 0

Therefore the system of equation has infinitely many solutions
