  • Question
  • The system of equations 2x + 4y = 6 and 4x + 8y = 6 has


  • Options
  • A. exactly two solutions
  • B. no solution
  • C. infinitely many solutions
  • D. a unique solutions

  • Correct Answer
  • no solution 

    Explanation

    Given equations 2x + 4y = 6 and 4x + 8y = 6

    then,
    a1/a2 = 2/4 = 1/2;
    b1/b2 = 4/8 = 1/2;
    c1/c2 = 6/6 = 1
    ? a1/b2 = b1/b2 ? c1/c2

    So there is no solution for these equations.
