How many solutions does the system of equations have?

1. \(2y = 10x - 14\)
2. \(5x - y = 7\)

Please provide a step-by-step solution.

Answer (3)

2y=10x-14 5x-y=7
Divide both sides by 2 in the 1st equation y=5x-7 Now substitute is to 2nd equation 5x-5x+7=7 0=0
Therefore there is no solution or it is inconsistent

these 2 equations are actually the same, hope u can understand.

The system of equations has an infinite number of solutions because both equations represent the same line in a two-dimensional space.
