Question 317539: Solve each system by the addition method. Determine whether
the equations are independent, dependent, or inconsistent
X – y = 3
-6x + 6y = 17

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
1.x+-y+=+3
2.-6x+%2B+6y+=+17
Multiply eq. 1 by 6 and add to eq. 2,
6x-6y-6x%2B6y=18%2B17
0=35
These lines are parallel.
There is no solution.
Independent, inconsistent.
