Michael wrote the system of equations below, but he accidentally left out the coefficient of x in the first equation.




y = ?x – 2

3y = 15x – 6




If the system has infinitely many solutions, what must the missing value be?

The answer is C, 5. This is because equation #2 is 3 times greater than the first equation, found by identifying 3y in the second equation. So 5*3=15.
