Question

An inconsistent, independent system of equations is a system with __________. (1 point)

A. intersecting lines that have the same slope and the same y-intercept

B. intersecting lines that have the same slope but different y-intercepts

C. intersecting lines that have different slopes and different y-intercepts

D. only one line

Answer 1

Answer: D

The lines overlap

Explanation:

Answer 2

Option B

Explanation:

we know that

If a system has two parallel lines (have the same slope) with different y-intercepts, then the system has no solution because the lines don't intersect and it is said to be inconsistent independent system

therefore

An inconsistent, independent system of equations is a system with intersecting lines that have the same slope but different y-intercepts
