jim_thompson5910 · Answer

yes these two lines cross at one point ---> one solution to the system ---> system is consistent and independent

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

consistent = at least one solution
independent = the two equations are different (they make different graphs)

anonymous · Answer

ok i have one more i will tag u and thx btw

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

inconsistent = no solutions

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

coincident = both equations are the same (one written in a different format)
