Question

y = -2x - 5
6x + 3y = -15

Answer 1

Answer:

Infinite solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute -2x - 5 for y in 6x + 3y = -15

• $6x + 3 (-2x-5)=-15$
• $6x + (3)(-2x)+(3)(-5) = -15$ (simplify both sides of the equation
• $6x -6x-15 =-15$
• $-15 = -15$
• $-15 + 15 = -15 + 15$ (add 15 to both sides)
• $0 = 0$

Therefore, the answer is infinite solutions.
