For the graph shown, select the statement that best represents the given system of equations. 5y – 7x = 10 3y + 4x = 6 A. not enough information B. coincident C. consistent and independent D. inconsistent

OpenStudy (brucebaner):

@TheSmartOne

OpenStudy (brucebaner):

i think its c

OpenStudy (brucebaner):

because The equtaion has only one solution because they cut each other only once and the are independent ..as both line are different. So it would be (c) consistent and independent

@TheSmartOne

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

Did you look at the graph? They are the same line. Even when you simplify the 2 lines...

OpenStudy (brucebaner):

yes

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

So any change of mind on the answer?

OpenStudy (brucebaner):

yes

OpenStudy (brucebaner):

D

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

When the two lines do not intersect they are inconsistent. These two lines intersect at every point so they are not inconsistent...

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

and now you said all of the wrong choices and 1 is left.. lol

OpenStudy (brucebaner):

B

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

Oh nevermind. This is a different problem.

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

I thought this was the smae one that me and @SolomonZelman were on.. lol

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

same*

OpenStudy (brucebaner):

so it is C

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

yes.

OpenStudy (brucebaner):

lol
