Question 7046: Solve each sytem by the substitution method. Determine wheter the equations are independent, dependent, or inconsistent.
y = 2x - 5
y + 1 = 2(x-2)
Answer by prabhjyot(165) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
y = 2x - 5 ---->(1)
y + 1 = 2(x-2) --->(2)
solving equation (2) we get
y+1 = 2x -4
2x- y =5 --->(3)
Now substuting equation (1) into equation(3)
2 x - (2x-5) = 5
2x - 2x +5 = 5
5=5
therefore the system is dependent.
