Question

the system of equations graphed below can be classified as

consistent, independent
consistent, dependent
inconsistent

Explanation:

Analyze the graphed system

Using the Linear Graphs and Linear Equations knowledge points

$$ LATEXBLOCK0 $$

Classify the system of equations

A system of linear equations is classified based on the number of solutions it has:

  • Consistent: The system has at least one solution (the lines intersect).
  • Inconsistent: The system has no solutions (the lines are parallel and distinct).
  • Independent: The system has exactly one unique solution (the lines intersect at a single point).
  • Dependent: The system has infinitely many solutions (the lines are identical).

Since the graphed lines intersect at exactly one unique point \((2, 2)\), the system is consistent and independent.

Answer:

  • Consistent, Independent (Correct answer)
  • Consistent, Dependent
  • Inconsistent
