Question

Given the equation 3x − 4y = 8, which equation below would cause a consistent-dependent system?

3x + 4y = −8
6x − 8y = 12
9x − 12y = 24
16x + 12y = −10

Answer 1

The third alternative is the correct solution

Explanation:

If a consistent system has an infinite number of solutions, it is dependent . When you graph the equations, both equations represent the same line. in this case, when you multiply the given equation by a scalar quantity 3, you obtain the third equation and thus the two will simply represent the same line when graphed
