Answer:

Part 3) Option C infinitely solutions

Part 4) Option D none

Part 5) Option C infinitely solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 3) we have

[tex]4x=-12y+16[/tex] -----> convert to standard form

[tex]4x+12y=16[/tex] -----> equation A

[tex]x+3y=4[/tex] -----> equation B

Multiply the equation B by [tex]4[/tex]

[tex]4(x+3y)=4*4[/tex] ------> [tex]4x+12y=16[/tex]

The equation A and the equation B are the same

therefore

The system has infinitely solutions

Part 4) we have

[tex]y=6x+2[/tex] ------> equation A

[tex]y=6x+4[/tex] ------> equation B

equation A and equation B are parallel lines, because has the same slope

the slope is equal to [tex]m=6[/tex]

therefore

The system has no solution

Part 5) we have

[tex]x-2y=6[/tex] ------> equation A

[tex]3x-6y=18[/tex] ------> equation B

Multiply the equation A by [tex]3[/tex]

[tex]3(x-2y)=6*3[/tex] -----> [tex]3x-6y=18[/tex]

The equation A and the equation B are the same

therefore

The system has infinitely solutions
