Describe the system 6x-2y=10 and 9x-3y=8 as consistent and independent, consistent and dependent, or inconsistent. Explain.

I don't know how to do this one

Multiply the second equation by 2/3 on each side. I will be happy to critique your thinking on this.

the 2nd equation equals the 1st so there are many solutions to the system so its consistent and dependent.
