Question 366908
 8x-5y=35
Plot two points: (0,-7) and (35/8,0) and draw a line thru them to get:
y = (8/5)x - 7
-----------------------
5y-8x=-35
Plot two points: (0,-7) and (35/8,0) to get:
y = (8/5)x-7
------------
Solve the system of equations by graphing. Then classify the system as consistent or inconsistant and as dependent or independent.
{{{graph(400,300,-10,10,-10,10,(8/5)x-7)}}}
----
The two lines are the same; the system is dependent.
