Answer:

the ONE solution is (0, 2) (Answer D)

Step-by-step explanation:

Please fix up the formatting a bit:

2v=5x+4

v=3.x + 2

becomes:

2v = 5x + 4

  v = 3x + 2

Multiplying all terms of the 2nd equation by -2, we get:

-2(v = 3x + 2), or -2v = -6x - 4

Combining this result with the first equation, we get:

2v = 5x + 4

-2v = -6x - 4

--------------------

  0 = -x + 0

Then x must = 0.  Subbing this x value into the 2nd equation, we get:

v = 3(0) + 2.  Thus, v = 0, and the ONE solution is (0, 2).
