1. What is the solution to the system of equations?

3x-6y=-12
x-2y=-8

(a) Use the substitution method to justify that the given system of equations has no solution.
(b) What do you know about the two lines in this system of equations?

So yeah, we'll have to use the substitution method to justify that the system of equations has no solution. We'll be substituting 3 into the second equation:

3x - 6y = -12
3x - 6y = -24

I know that this system of equations leaves us with no solution because both the x and y crosses out, leaving us with 0 = 12.

Answer:

I know I am answering 3 years late but for the people who need help, this is the answer. I know because I go to k12. And FYI I am using the substitution method so you don't need to worry about that :)

A) 3x-6y=-12

x-2y=-8  

3(2y – 8) - 6y = -12  

 6y – 24 – 6y = -12  

 -24 ≠ -12  

There is no solution.  

B) If we were to graph them, the two lines would not intersect; they would be parallel.  

HOPE THIS HELPS :) PLZ LEAVE A THANKS AND A GOOD RATING. WOULD BE APPRECIATED !
