Q. Which describes the system of equations below?y=x+2y=103x−32Choices:(A)consistent and dependent(B)inconsistent(C)consistent and independent
Identify slopes of equations: We have the system of equations:y=x+2y=103x−32Identify whether the slopes of both the equations are the same.In y=x+2, the slope is 1.In y=103x−32, the slope is 103.No, the slopes of both the equations are not the same.
Determine if slopes are same: Since the slopes are different, the lines are not parallel and will intersect at exactly one point. This means the system of equations has one unique solution. Therefore, the system of equations is consistent and independent.
