solve the system of equations by graphing then classify as consistent or inconsistent and as dependent or independent.
6x-8y=24
8y-6x=-24
------------
Put both into slope-intercept form.
y = (3/4)x - 3
y = (3/4)x -3

------------------------
The two equations give the same line.
The equations are said to be "dependent".
