Answer: A consistent system has at least one solution. ... y = 7/3 * x - 2/3 is the slope intercept form of the equation 7x - 3y = 2 m = 7/3 b = -2/3 a line parallel to the line created by this equation.

Answer:

The system of equations is a consistent system

Explanation:

we have


y=-x+12 ----> equation A


y=-2x+2 ----> equation B

Multiply by
-1 equation A


-y=-(-x+12) ----->
-y=x-12 -----> equation C

Adds equation B and equation C


y=-2x+2\\-y=x-12\\--------\\0=-2x+x+2-12\\0=-x-10\\x=-10

Find the value of y


y=-(-10)+12=22

the solution is the point
(-10,22)

The system has one solution

therefore

The system of equations is a consistent system
