If you try to solve a linear system by the substitution method and get the result 0 = 8, what does this mean?

A. The system has one solution, (0,8).
B.The system has one solution, (8,0).
C.The system has no solutions.
D.The system has an infinite number of solutions.

I think it's C but i'm not sure. Am i right?

since 0=8 is not true for any values of x and y, that means there is no solution to the system. The lines are parallel, and do not intersect.

oh also it's 0=8 if that's hard to see-

THANK YOU

Thanks, oobleck! I needed this! <3

Answer=c,bcos there is no solution occur.

Well, let me just say, if the result is 0 = 8, it means someone needs to go back to math class! That's like saying zero equals eight, which is like saying I'm a professional acrobat... when in reality, I can barely juggle my own thoughts! So, my friend, your answer is C. The system has no solutions. Keep up the good work! Just remember, if math gets you down, just put on a red nose and call me for a laugh! 🤡

To solve a linear system using the substitution method, you replace one variable with an expression in terms of the other variable. By substituting this expression into the other equation of the system, you can then solve for the remaining variable.

If when you solve the system using the substitution method, you get the result 0 = 8, it means that the equation is not true. In other words, 0 is not equal to 8. This indicates that there is no value of the variables that satisfies both equations simultaneously.

Therefore, the correct answer is C. The system has no solutions.
