Answer: Consistent and Coincident

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -3x + 1

2y = -6x + 2 | divide by 2

-------

y = -3x + 1

y = -3x + 1

Equating both sides will get us:

-3x + 1 = -3x + 1

0 = 0

which true for any value of x.

Therefore the system is consistent (it has one or more solutions) and coincident (the solution is infinite - the equations are identical)
