Let's plug in x = 1 into the first equation:
5(1) + 5 = 5(1) + 4
10 = 9
This equation is clearly false, indicating that x = 1 is not a solution to the first equation.
Now let's plug in x = 2 into the second equation:
3(2) + 18 = 5(2) + 8
6 + 18 = 10 + 8
24 = 18
This equation is also false, indicating that x = 2 is not a solution to the second equation.
Since we can't find a solution for both equations simultaneously, the system of equations does not have a unique solution.
make this like a 8th grader wrote it
When we put x = 1 in the first equation, we get 10 = 9, which doesn't make sense. So, 1 is not the answer for the first equation.
When we put x = 2 in the second equation, we get 24 = 18, which is also wrong. So, 2 is not the answer for the second equation.
Since we can't find a number that works for both equations, there's no one answer that works for both.
