The system of equations shown is solved using the linear combination m6x-5y=-8→6x-5y =-8 →6x-5y =-8-24x+20y = 32 →4 (-24x+20y = 32) ►-6x +5y = 80= 0What does 0 = 0 mean regarding the solution to the system?



Answer :

Answer

Option D is correct.

There are infinite solutions because the two equations are for the same line.

Step-by-step Explanation

The two equations being considered are

6x - 5y = -8

-24x + 20y = 32

On simplification, the expression reduces to 0 = 0

If we examine the two equations properly, we'd see that the equations reduce into each other.

-24x + 20y = 32 divided by -4 gives

6x - 5y = -8

Indicating that the two equations are the same and the 0 = 0 obtained translates to the fact that the two equations are for the same line.

So, if we have only one equation, it means there are numerous solution pairs that will satisfy the equation.

So, the perfect answer is that

There are infinite solutions because the two equations are for the same line.

Hope this Helps!!!
