Solución

Solve the system of equations \( 5x-y=9;x+6y=8 \). Solve the system of equations by following steps: - step0: Solve using the substitution method: \(\left\{ \begin{array}{l}5x-y=9\\x+6y=8\end{array}\right.\) - step1: Solve the equation: \(\left\{ \begin{array}{l}y=-9+5x\\x+6y=8\end{array}\right.\) - step2: Substitute the value of \(y:\) \(x+6\left(-9+5x\right)=8\) - step3: Simplify: \(31x-54=8\) - step4: Move the constant to the right side: \(31x=8+54\) - step5: Add the numbers: \(31x=62\) - step6: Divide both sides: \(\frac{31x}{31}=\frac{62}{31}\) - step7: Divide the numbers: \(x=2\) - step8: Substitute the value of \(x:\) \(y=-9+5\times 2\) - step9: Calculate: \(y=1\) - step10: Calculate: \(\left\{ \begin{array}{l}x=2\\y=1\end{array}\right.\) - step11: Check the solution: \(\left\{ \begin{array}{l}x=2\\y=1\end{array}\right.\) - step12: Rewrite: \(\left(x,y\right) = \left(2,1\right)\) The system of equations \(5x-y=9\) and \(x+6y=8\) has a unique solution, which is \(x=2\) and \(y=1\). Therefore, the correct choice is A. There is a unique solution.

To solve the system of equations by the elimination method, we first write the equations clearly: 1. \(5x - y = 9\) (Equation 1) 2. \(x + 6y = 8\) (Equation 2) To eliminate \(y\), we can multiply Equation 1 by 6 to match the coefficient of \(y\) in Equation 2: \[ 30x - 6y = 54 \quad \text{(Equation 1 multiplied by 6)} \] Now we have: 1. \(30x - 6y = 54\) 2. \(x + 6y = 8\) Next, we add the two equations together: \[ (30x - 6y) + (x + 6y) = 54 + 8 \] This simplifies to: \[ 31x = 62 \] Now, solve for \(x\): \[ x = 2 \] Now that we have \(x\), we can substitute \(x = 2\) back into one of the original equations to solve for \(y\). Let's use Equation 1: \[ 5(2) - y = 9 \] This simplifies to: \[ 10 - y = 9 \] Rearranging gives: \[ -y = -1 \quad \Rightarrow \quad y = 1 \] So the solution to the system of equations is: \[ (x, y) = (2, 1) \] Thus, the ordered pair is \( \boxed{(2, 1)} \). Since we found a unique solution, the answer is not infinitely many or no solution.
