Short Answer

Expert verified

The equations are consistent and dependent

Step by step solution

01

Given information

Given the system of equationsx+2y=6y=-12x+3

02

Substitution of value of variable in another equation

Substituting in another equation, we get

y=-12x+3y=-12(6-2y)+3y=-12.6-12(-2y)+3y=-3+y+3-3=-3

The equations are consistent and dependent
