Given the equation:

y - 10 = 3x
Can be written as,
y = 3x + 10 (1st equation)

2y = 6x + 20
(2nd equation)

Solve the system.

Solution:

In order to solve the system of equation, we must substitute the value of y from the first equation to the 2nd equation.

2y = 6x + 20

2(3x + 10) = 6x + 20

6x + 20 = 6x +20

It can be seen that the value is the same for both sides hence if we solve them, we will have 0 as an answer, which means that we have no solution.

Final answer:

No Solution
