A student claims that the equations \(3x-2y=5\) and \(6x-4y=12\) have infinitely many solutions because the ratios of the coefficients of \(x\) and \(y\) are equal. Considering the student's error, which conclusion is correct?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The equations have no solution

\(\frac{3}{6}=\frac{-2}{-4}=\frac12\), but \(\frac{5}{12}\ne\frac12\). Hence, the lines are parallel and have no solution. Exam tip: always compare all three ratios.
