Question

The linear equation 3x – y = x – 1 has:

(A) A unique solution (B) Two solutions (C) Infinitely many solutions (D) No solution​

Answer 1

Answer:

no solution for this question

Answer 2

C) Infinitely many solutions

Explanation:

• The given linear equation can be simplified as

3x - x = y - 1

⇒ 2x = y - 1

• Here, for any odd integer value of y we get the value of x.
• Since there are infinitely many odd numbers, each value of y would give us a unique value of x.

So, it can be said that the given linear equation in 2 variables has infinitely many solutions.
