@prisma sundial

what would u want the coefficient of y to be such that in the second equation there will be no denominator

[prisma sundial]

this isnt fractions lol its whole num btw and the coefficient can be any number

also am i doing something wrong

it says im doing it wrong

sorry lol

[bitter basin]

oh u cant use it on either

your best bet is to use the coefficient of y as 2 and then simplify using reverse of distributivity

[bitter basin]

@prisma sundial this is because say $2y = 6-4x$ then $y = 3-2x$

[prisma sundial]

but if you put 4x+1y=9, x=2 and y=1 ; so if y=1, you needa find an equation equal to 1

and 7-3x is legit because 7-3(2) is 7-6 so itll be the same value as y

is the machine broken??? 😭

and i didnt reuse the same number

[rose kayak]

what if you made it 0y

wouldnt that make it a lot easier to do

since y can then be litearlly anything

[prisma sundial]

no if i do y=0 i cant use repeating numbers 😭😭💔

the machine is broken right??

[bitter basin]

No

[bitter basin]

i accidentally told u a correct solution without realizing fuck

[bitter basin]

it isnt an equivalent equation then

[rose kayak]

oh I thought it meant valid systems of equations

[prisma sundial]

I DID IT NVM
