Expert Solution

Step 1

"Since you have posted a question with multiple sub-parts, we will solve the first three sub-parts for you. To get the remaining sub-part solved please repost the complete question and mention the sub-parts to be solved."

The following definitions are used to obtain the required solution.

If a system of linear equations has at least one solution, then the system is said to be consistent.
If a system of linear equations has no solution, then the system is said to be inconsistent.
If a system of linear equations has an infinite number of solutions, then the system is said to be dependent.
