Question: Solve the system by substitution: 2x + 2y = 4; 3x = - 3y + 9


A ) Infinite solutions
B ) No solution
C ) (2, 0)
D ) (1, 1)

Steps to derive

1 3x = -3y + 9
 [Second equation.]

2 x = -y + 3
 [Divide each side by 3.]

3 2x + 2y = 4
 [First equation.]

4 2(-y + 3) + 2y = 4
 [Substitute x in the first equation.]

5 -2y + 6 + 2y = 4

6 6 = 4
 [Contradiction.]

7 So, the system has no solution.



Hence the right answer is Option B
