Question

Classify the system and determine the number of solutions. (Check all that apply. )

{7x - y = -11
3y = 21x + 33


infinitely many solutions

independent

consistent

no solution

inconsistent

dependent

Answer 1

now it makes more sense

Answer 2

solve both for y, you will see it is the same line

Answer 3

It would be easier if you wrote it so they both say Ax+Bx=C:

7x - y = -11
-21x + 3y = 33

Then you can solve for x or y.

Answer 4

If the number you get equals each other, then there is an infinite number of equations (like 3=3), and if you get 2 number that do not equal each other (like 5=8), then it will be no solution. If you get y=___ or x=_____ then there is one solution (like x=6, y=3). Consistent is where the numbers are the same (infinite # of solutions) Inconsistent is where there is no solutions. Dependent is where there is the same # on both sides (infinite # of solutions) and independent is when you get x=_____ or y=_____.

Answer 5

okay i think i get it
