5. A system of equations is below. For what value would you multiply the first equation to eliminate the x-term?
(y=x+2
3x + 3y = 6

We would multiply the first equation by -3  to eliminate the x-term.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the system of equations

y = x+2                Equation 1

3x+3y = 6           Equation 2

Multiply the Equation 1 by -3

-3y = -3(x+2) ⇒ -3y = -3x-6 ⇒ -3x+3y = 6

Thus, equation 1 becomes

-3x+3y = 6

Now, adding equation 2

-3x+3y = 6

+

3x+3y = 6

0x + 6y = 12

6y = 12

y = 2

Therefore, we would multiply the first equation by -3  to eliminate the x-term.

x=-2

infinite number of lines, so there is an infinite number of equations.

step-by-step explanation:

there are an infinite number of line that passes through the point (-2,5)

x=-2   is one line that passes through the point

y = 5 is another line that passes through the point

(these two lines are perpendicular to each other).

since the number of   numbers are infinite and the slope is the ratio of two numbers,(change in y over change in x) we can have an infinite number of slopes.     our only condition is that it passes through the point (-2,5)
