Question

How do you determine whether a linear system has one solution, many solutions, or no solution when given 2x +3y= 17 and 5x+8y= 20?

Answer 1

Only one set of solution, i.e, 1 value of x and y respectively

Explanation:

Well, if you want to know why, just sketch the line according to the eqn. It will only intersect once
Since solving the eqn refers to the point of intersection, you'll see the, not only this eqn but all linear eqns will intersect once.
