Question

The system of equations \(y + a = 0\) and \(2x = b\) has

• A. No solution
• B. \((-a, \frac{b}{2})\) as its solution
• C. \(\left(\frac{b}{2}, -a\right)\) as its solution
• D. Infinite solutions

Hint:

Solve each equation individually for \(x\) and \(y\).

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

From \(2x = b \Rightarrow x = \frac{b}{2}\), From \(y + a = 0 \Rightarrow y = -a\) So, the solution is \(\left(\frac{b}{2}, -a\right)\)
