Question

on comparing the ratios a1/a2,b1/b2 and c1/c2 find out whether the lines representing the pair of Determine whether the following system of linear equations has infinitely many solutions : 1/2x-1/y=-1 ; 1/x+1/2y=8, where x and y are not equal to 0

Answer 1

Answer:

a1/a2 = b1/b2 = c1/c2

If this equality prevails, the lines are said to be coincident. Hence, this pair of lines are said to be coincident, and they would be having an infinite number of solutions.
