Classify the system of equations and identify the number of solutions. 2x + y = 5 6x + 3y = 25
a.inconsistent, one
b. inconsistent, none
c. inconsistent, dependent, one
d. consistent dependent, infinite

Respuesta :

2x + y = 5
6x + 3y = 25

Multiply both sides of the first equation by 3.
6x + 3y = 15

Now subtract it from the second equation.

0 = 10

Since 0 = 10 is a false statement, there is no solution.

Answer: b. inconsistent, none
