To find: the system of given equations by graphing.
Answer to Problem 20E
Consistent and independent
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Calculation:
Convert equation (1) into slope intercept form to evaluate the value of slope and y-intercept as follows:
Thus, the value of slope is
Convert equation (2) into slope intercept form to evaluate the value of slope and y-intercept as follows:
Thus, the value of slope is
Since, both the slopes have different values and the lines are not parallel to each other. So, they can have only one solution.
So, without graphing, the equations are consistent and independent.
