<h3>Answer:</h3>

<u>Given equation</u>:– 2ax + by = a, 4ax + 2by - 2a = 0

a1 = 2a; b1 = b; c1 = - a & a2 = 4a; b2 = 2b; c2 = - 2a.

<u>For consistence, a1/a2 = b1/b2 = c1/c2 must be equal</u>

  • 2a/4a = b/2b = -a/-2a
  • 1/2 = 1/2 = 1/2

<u>So, The given equation is consistence</u>.

Yes.

<h3>Justification:</h3>

Here,

  • a1/a2 = 2a/4a = 1/2,
  • b1/b2 = b/2b = 1/2,
  • c1/c2 = - a/- 2a = 1/2.

∵ a1/a2 = b1/b2 = c1/c2

∴ <u>The given system of equations is consistent</u>.

15 - 4x = 6 - 3x<br><br>whats the answer. ​
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:9

Step-by-step explanation: First you add the 3x to both sides(the -4x and the -3x) and then you get 15-1x=6. Next you subtract 15 from 15 and 6, so you get -1x=-9. So then you divide both sides by -1 (do -1x over -1 equals -9 over -1). Last you do the dividing and you get x=9.
