Graph each system of equations and describe it as consistent and independent, consistent and dependent, or
inconsistent.
1. 3x + y = –2 2. x + 2y = 5 3. 2x – 3y = 0
6x + 2y = 10 3x – 15 = –6y
consistent 4x – 6y = 3
inconsistent and dependent inconsistent
4. 2x – y = 3 5. 4x + y = –2 6. 3x – y = 2
𝑦
x + 2y = 4 consistent 2x + 2 = –1
consistent x + y = 6 consistent
and independent and dependent and independent
4. 2x – y = 7 5. 4x – y = 6 6. 5x + 2y = 12
𝑦
6x – 3y = 14 2x – 2 = 4 –6x – 2y = –14
no solution no solution (2, 1)
7. 2x + y = 8 8. 7x + 2y = –1 9. 3x + 8y = –6
