Both have slope = -2
So the lines are parallel.
Therefore::
Not de;endent because one is not a multiple of the other
Independent:: yes
No solution so the variables do not have consistent value.
Inconsistent:: yes

if you compare these equations of the lines to the slope-intercept form equation of the line where is a slope and is y-intercept, then you see that given lines have slope of and (by definition) we know that these two lines are
so,these two two lines will not cross at all and that means there are no solutions, and the system is called
