Question

Solve the system by graphing. (Enter your answers as a comma-separated list. If the system is inconsistent, enter INCONSISTENT. If the system is dependent, enter DEPENDENT.) x + y = 6 x − y = 2

Answer 1

Answer:

(4,2). DEPENDENT

Step-by-step explanation:

As each equation consist on two variable, both can be represented graphically on a cartesian plane. First, each expression is rewritten in explicit form:

$y = 6 - x$ (red line) and $y = x - 2$ (blue line)

By the resource of graphing software, the solution is (4,2). The representation is presented below as attachment. As solution exists, both expression are linearly DEPENDENT.
