c. dependent
d. consistent
Answer by Earlsdon(6294) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
System of equations:
1)
2)
Multiply equation 1) by 6 to get:
1a)
As you can see, the two given equations are identical, so...
The system is a consistent system since there is at least one solution and the equations are said to be dependent equations.
