Question 628413: Solve the following system of equation using SUBSTITUTION to eliminate one variable. If the system has no solution, indicate that it is inconsistent; if it has infinite solutions, indicate that it is dependent; if the system has one solution, check your answer.
y=-x+3
2x=-2y+10

Answer by Maths68(1474)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
y=-x+3.........(1)
2x=-2y+10......(2)
Put the value of y from (1) to (2)
2x=-2(-x+3)+10
2x=2x-6+10
2x=2x+4
2x-2x=4
0=4 (which is not true)
System has no solution and is inconsistent.
