- Using the method of addition, is there only one way to solve the system?arrow_forwardFor Exercises 15–22, solve the system by using the addition method. (See Examples 3-4) 15. 2x + 3y = 11 16. 3x + y² = 21 17. x - xy = 20 18. 4xy + 3y² = -9 2 + 4y = 8 4x - 2y = -2 -2x2 + 3xy = -44 2xy + y = -5 21. x = 1- y 9x - 4y? = 36 19. 5x - 2y2 = 1 20. 6x + 5y = 38 7x - 3y = 9 22. 4x = 4 - y? 16y = 144 + 9x? 2x - 3y = -4arrow_forwardIs it possible for a system of equations which involves two or more variables to have no solution? Does this system of equations have a solution? 2x + 3y = 6, 2x + 3y = 12? How can one deduce whether a system of equations has a solution? Explain.arrow_forward
- Determine whether the statement, "A system of linear equations in three variables, x, y, and z, cannot contain an equation in the form y = mx + b", makes sense or does not make sense, and explain your reasoning.arrow_forwardJolve the system 1 2 4 5 6 X2 X3 2 -3 10 5.arrow_forwardWhich of the following methods does one use for solving a system of linear equations?arrow_forward
