Is the system consistent or inconsistent? y = -1/2x - 1 and y = 3x + 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

consistent, the lines are not parallel (different slopes)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, consistent, it has two ordered pairs

OpenStudy (anonymous):

first one is not a straight line

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i'd interpret it as -.5x not -1/(2x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):
