Is the following system consistent or inconsistent? 7x + 6 = -2y -14x -4y + 2 = 0 consistent inconsistent

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The lines are parallel..they have the same slope.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So what do you think?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Inconsistent

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yep, you got it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If you say a system is consistent, it means that it can be solved. If you say a system is inconsistent, it means that the system has no solution.

Thanks (: How do you figure out if they're parallel or not ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I graphed them. https://www.desmos.com/calculator
