You can put this solution on YOUR website!
\"x%2B9y=5\" Start with the first equation.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"4-9y%2B9y=5\" Plug in \"x=4-9y\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"4=5\" Combine like terms on the left side\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Since the equation above is clearly NOT true, this means that there are no values of \"y\" that will satisfy the equation.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So there are NO solutions. This means that the system is inconsistent.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
