Question

Solve the system. State whether the system is inconsistent or has infinitely many solutions. If the system has infinitely many solutions, write the solution set with y arbitrary. 

5x-6y=3

-10x+12y=-6

(see photo for answer format.)

Solve the system. State whether the system is inconsistent or has infinitely many solutions. If the system
has infinitely many solutions, write the solution set with y arbitrary.
5x - 6y = 3
- 10x+ 12y = - 6
Select the correct choice below and, if necessary, fill in the answer box to complete your choice.
O A. There is one solution. The solution set is { }.
(Simplify your answer. Type an ordered pair.)
O B. The system has infinitely many solutions. The solution set is {}.
(Simplify your answer. Type an ordered pair. Type an expression using y as the variable.)
OC. The solution is the empty set.
