Answer:
I'd say you need to be more specific.
Step-by-step explanation:
"Different" doesn't tell you much.
Consider the equations ...
These equations are "different", but they are <em>dependent</em>.
_____
I'd mentally (or actually) put the equations in the same form and compare the coefficients of x and y. If they have different ratios, the system is independent and consistent.
If they have the same ratio, the system will not have a single solution. Whether there is no solution or an infinite number of solutions depends on the constant, which I would examine next.
The system above can be put in the form
In both cases, the ratio of the x coefficient to the y coefficient is 2/-1 = 4/-2 = -2. This means the lines are at least parallel, if not identical. The numbers in the second equation are all 2 times the numbers in the first equation, so the equations are <em>dependent</em>, and there are an infinite number of solutions. (Both describe the same line.)
If the second equation were 4x -2y = 1, then the two equations would be describing parallel lines, so they would be called <em>inconsistent</em>.
Answer:
-3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Perpendicular slopes are reciprocal opposites of the original slope. This means that the reciprocal of 4/3 is 3/4, and the opposite of 3/4 is -3/4.
