Classify {y=-6x+10} {y=-6x+3} write consistent and independent, consistent and dependent, or inconsistent.

Question

amistre64 · Answer

so, when x=0; y=10 and y=3

when does 10 = 3 make sense?

anonymous · Answer

Consistent and dependent. Consistent because the slopes are the same and independent because the Y intercepts are different. 

Y=MX+B

amistre64 · Answer

and independant .. but yeah

amistre64 · Answer

the matrix produced is inconsistent i beleive ....

amistre64 · Answer

000  would be consistent

010  is constent as well

but 00n where n is not 0 is inconsistent

amistre64 · Answer

parallel lines never have a solution so they are inconsistent

anonymous · Answer

Your right.

amistre64 · Answer

lol, with any luck im remembering it correctly

anonymous · Answer

So the answer should be inconsistent, correct? And thank you both for helping me!

amistre64 · Answer

inconsistent is definantly part of it

amistre64 · Answer

dependant or not tho might be another issue

amistre64 · Answer

id venture to say the system is dependant sint the x and y parts create a vector matrix that is identical and therefore has a determinant of zero
