Lesson Steps

Step Type Explanation Answer

1

Problem

In the system of equations above, s and m are constants. If the system has infinitely many solutions, what is the value of sm: sx + my = 12 and 3x + 12y = 6.

2

Step

The given system of equation are

sx + my = 12 equation(1) and

3x + 12y = 6 equation(2)

3

Step

Equation(2) is multiply by the number is 2

2(3x + 12y = 6)

6x + 24 y = 12 equation(3)

4

Hint

Since both equations (1) and (3) are now equal to 12, now set them equal to each other.

5

Step

Then find the values of s and m

sx + my = 6x + 24 y

so here s = 6 and m = 24

6

Step

Find the value of sm

\$sm = 6 times 24\$

sm = 144

7

Step

So, therefore the value of sm is 144.
