Question 1005380: Without graphing, answer the questions for the following linear system.
3x+2y=7
18x+12y=3
a) Is the system inconsistent, or are the equations dependent, or neither?
b) is the graph a pair of intersecting lines, a pair of parallel lines, or one line?
c) Does the system have one solution, no solution, or an infinite number of solutions?
