Given the equation 3x − 4y = 8, which equation below would cause a consistent-dependent system?
3x + 4y = −8
6x − 8y = 12
9x − 12y = 24
16x + 12y = −10

consistent-dependent --- you should think same line

freckles · Answer

what can you multiply both sides of 3x-4y=8 that will give one of the choices below ?

cluelessmf · Answer

Oh, is it C then

freckles · Answer

like say we multiply both sides by c
(3c)x-(4c)y=8c

there should be a value c that produces one of the choices
