Which values of a and b make this system of equations have infinitely many solutions? 2y + 16 = 6x
y = ax + b
a = -3, b = 8
a = -3, b = -8
a = 3, b = -8
a = 3, b = 8

  a = 3, b = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving the first equation for y, we get ...

  2y +16 = 6x . . . . . given

  y = 8 +3x . . . . . . . divide by 2

  y = 3x -8 . . . . . . . subtract 8

In order for the system of equations to have infinitely many solutions, the second equation must be the same as this:

  y = ax +b

  a = 3, b = -8
