Question

System of equations 5x+y=7 20x+2=y

Answer 1

Dependent

The general form for a pair of linear equations in two variables x and y is
and

----- (1)
----- (2)
Comparing equations 1 and 2 with the general form of equation to write their co-efficient,

Compare the ratio,

If , then the pair of linear equations has exactly one solution.
So, it said to be consistent.
