The answer, believe it or not, is ALWAYS TRUE.

The equation will always give you 7 = 7 in this case.


When you solve for x and y, you will end with the equation 7 = 7 because both x and y cancel out.

These are the same equation.
This is a dependent system.
Every solution to equation 1 is also a solution to equation 2 so there are an infinite number of solutions.
