To solve: the system of equations
Answer to Problem 6RE
The solution of the system of equations does not exist
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Calculation:
Consider the following system of equations:
Step (1):
Consider the first equation,
Write
Step (2):
Consider the second equation,
Substitute
Consider the third equation,
Substitute
The values of
Hence the values of
Thus, the solution of the system of equations does not exist.
Graph the three lines on a single screen.
From the figure, observe that there is no single intersection point for all the three lines. Hence the system of equations has no solution.
Conclusion: The solution of the system of equations does not exist
