Which describes the system of equations below? y = 1/8x + 3/4 y = 1/8x + 3/4 Choices: (A)consistent and dependent (B)consistent and independent (C)inconsistent

Slope Comparison: We have the system of equations: y = 1/8x + 3/4 y = 1/8x + 3/4 Identify whether the slopes of both the equations are the same. In y = 1/8x + 3/4, the slope is 1/8. In y = 1/8x + 3/4, the slope is 1/8. Yes, the slopes of both equations are the same.Y-Intercept Comparison: We have the system of equations: y = 1/8x + 3/4 y = 1/8x + 3/4 Identify whether the y-intercepts of both the equations are the same. In y = 1/8x + 3/4, the y-intercept is 3/4. In y = 1/8x + 3/4, the y-intercept is 3/4. Yes, the y-intercepts of both equations are the same.System Description: y = 1/8x + 3/4 y = 1/8x + 3/4 Choose the option which describes the given system of equations. Since the slopes and y-intercepts are the same, the system of equations is consistent and dependent.
