To solve the problem, we need to determine the values of \( a \) and \( b \) such that the system of equations has infinitely many solutions. This occurs when the two equations represent the same line. Given the equations: 1. \( ax + by = 12 \) 2. \( 2x + 8y = 60 \) ### Step 1: Rewrite the second equation in a standard form We can simplify the second equation: ...
