Question 334825: This needs to be solved by substitution method to determine whether the equations are independent, dependent, or inconsistent. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

2x - y = 4
2x - y = 3

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Since both equations equal 2x-y, set them equal to each other.
4=3
The system is inconsistent.
No solution.
The lines are parallel so there is no solution.
