Answer:

false

Explanation:

Dependency → Infinitely Many Solutions [All on one line]

Inconsistency → No Solution [Two Parallel Lines]

Consistency → One solution [Two intersecting Linear Lines]

It can also be three lines.

**I have a video that explains how to solve a system of equations in two to three variables. It is titled "Solving Systems of Equations". I encourage you to watch the video and gain alot more knowledge from it, so you can better understand the concepts.
