Answer:

the equations are dependent; both describe the line y = 2x -6

Explanation:

Remove the common factor of 5 from the first equation and you have ...

2x -6 = y

Subtract 6 from the second equation and you have ...

2x -6 = y

The two equations are the same, so describe the same line. The solution set is all points on that line. The equations are dependent, and have an infinite number of solutions.
