Answer: There are infinite number of solutions.
Step-by-step explanation: The given equation is:
We see that the above equation is a linear equation having two unknown variables 'x' and 'y'.
Since the number of unknown variables (= 2) is greater than the number of equations (= 1), so there will be infinitely many solutions to the given equation.
For example, from equation (i), we have
If x = 2, we get y = 16 - 2 = 14,
if x = 8, we get y = 16 - 8 = 8, etc.
Thus, (2, 14), (8, 8), etc are the solutions of equation (i).
Also, the graph of the given equation will be a straight line and any point on the line will satisfy the equation.
The graph is attached.
