Q. 3х+2y=4(x−y−6)6(у+x)=7x−24Which of the following accurately describes all solutions to the system of equations shown?
Expand and Simplify Equations: Expand the equations to simplify them.For the first equation, distribute the 4 to each term inside the parentheses:3x+2y=4(x−y−6)3x+2y=4x−4y−24
Rearrange and Isolate Variables: Rearrange the first equation to group like terms and isolate variables.Subtract 3x from both sides and add 4y to both sides:3x+2y−3x+4y=4x−4y−24−3x+4y2y+4y=4x−3x−246y=x−24
Simplify Second Equation: Simplify the second equation by distributing the 6 to each term inside the parentheses: 6(y+x)=7x−246y+6x=7x−24
Rearrange and Isolate Variables: Rearrange the second equation to group like terms and isolate variables.Subtract 6x from both sides:6y+6x−6x=7x−24−6x6y=x−24
Identical Equations Observation: Observe that both simplified equations are identical.6y=x−24 (from Step 2)6y=x−24 (from Step 4)This means that the two equations are dependent and represent the same line.
Conclusion of Infinite Solutions: Conclude that the system of equations has infinitely many solutions because both equations represent the same line.
