In each of the following systems of equations determine whether the system has a unique solution, no solution or infinitely many solutions. In case there is a unique solution, find it
$2 x+y=5$
$4 x+2 y=10$
GIVEN:
$2 x+y=5$
$4 x+2 y=10$
To find: To determine whether the system has a unique solution, no solution or infinitely many solutions
We know that the system of equations
$a_{1} x+b_{1} y=c_{1}$
$a_{2} x+b_{2} y=c_{2}$
For unique solution
$\frac{a_{1}}{a_{2}} \neq \frac{b_{1}}{b_{2}}$
For no solution
$\frac{a_{1}}{a_{2}}=\frac{b_{1}}{b_{2}} \neq \frac{c_{1}}{c_{2}}$
For infinitely many solution
$\frac{a_{1}}{a_{2}}=\frac{b_{1}}{b_{2}}=\frac{c_{1}}{c_{2}}$
Here,
$\frac{2}{4}=\frac{1}{2}=\frac{5}{10}$
$\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{2}$
Since $\frac{a_{1}}{a_{2}}=\frac{b_{1}}{b_{2}}=\frac{c_{1}}{c_{2}}$ which means $\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{2}$ hence the system of equation has infinitely many solution.
Hence the system of equation has infinitely many solutions
