b)There are infinitely many solutions
c)There is no solution

Is the system consistent or inconsistent?
a)inconsistent
b)consistent

Are the equations dependent or independent?
a)dependent
b)independent

1 answer

since the lines are not the same or parallel, then they have a single solution.

I'm sure you can come up with it.

So, the equations are independent and consistent.

dependent means they are the same line
inconsistent means they are parallel lines.
