Question 147648: Solve each system by the addition method. Indicate whether each system is dependent, inconsistent, or dependent.
x+3(y-1)=11
2(x-y)+8y = 28

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x%2B+3%28y-1%29+=+11
x+%2B+3y+-+3+=+11
x+%2B+3y+=+14
2%28x-y%29%2B8y+=+28
2x+-+2y+%2B+8y+=+28
2x+%2B+6y+=+28
x+%2B+3y+=+14
These two lines can be represented by the same line. So they are dependent
