1) The above equations can best be described as :

Explanation

The given equations are described as dependent because they represent the same line with an infinite number of solutions. This means that any point on the line will satisfy both equations. Therefore, the equations are not inconsistent (parallel lines with no solutions) or intersecting (one unique pair of solutions), but rather dependent.

Submit
11) The above equations can best be described as :

Explanation

The given equations are described as inconsistent because they represent parallel lines that do not intersect and therefore have no common solution.

Submit
12) The above equations can best be described as :

Explanation

The given equations are described as inconsistent because they represent parallel lines that do not intersect. Inconsistent equations have no common solution, meaning there is no value of the variables that satisfies both equations simultaneously. Therefore, the correct answer is "Inconsistent (they are parallel lines with no solutions)."

Submit
13) The above equations can best be described as :

Explanation

The given equations are described as inconsistent because they represent parallel lines that do not intersect. When two lines are parallel, they have the same slope but different y-intercepts. Since parallel lines never intersect, there are no solutions that satisfy both equations simultaneously. Therefore, the equations are inconsistent.

Submit
14) The above equations can best be described as :

Explanation

The given equations are described as inconsistent because they represent parallel lines with no solutions. This means that the lines never intersect and there is no common solution for the two equations.

Submit
15) The above equations can best be described as :

Explanation

The given equations are described as inconsistent because they are parallel lines with no solutions. This means that the lines will never intersect and there is no common solution for both equations.

Submit
16) The above equations can best be described as :

Explanation

The given equations are described as inconsistent because they represent parallel lines that do not intersect. Inconsistent systems have no common solution, meaning that there is no point that satisfies both equations simultaneously. Therefore, the correct answer is "Inconsistent (they are parallel lines with no solutions)."

Submit
17) The above equations can best be described as :

Explanation

The given equations can best be described as dependent because they represent the same line with an infinite number of solutions. This means that any point on one equation will also satisfy the other equation. Therefore, the two equations are not independent and can be considered as the same equation.

Submit
18) The above equations can best be described as :

Explanation

The given equations can best be described as dependent because they represent the same line. When two equations are dependent, it means that they are essentially the same equation and have an infinite number of solutions. In this case, the equations are parallel lines that coincide with each other, resulting in an infinite number of points of intersection.

19) The above equations can best be described as :

Explanation

The given equations are dependent because they represent the same line. When two equations are dependent, it means that they have an infinite number of solutions because they are essentially the same equation. In this case, the equations are parallel and will coincide with each other, resulting in an infinite number of points of intersection.

20) The above equations can best be described as :

Explanation

The given equations can be described as dependent because they represent the same line. When two equations are dependent, it means that they have an infinite number of solutions because they are essentially the same equation. In this case, the equations are parallel lines that overlap completely, resulting in an infinite number of points of intersection.

Submit
21) The above equations can best be described as :

Explanation

The given equations can best be described as dependent because they represent the same line. When two equations are dependent, it means that they have an infinite number of solutions because they are essentially the same equation. In this case, the equations are parallel lines that coincide with each other, resulting in an infinite number of points of intersection. Therefore, the correct answer is dependent.

Submit
22) The above equations can best be described as :

Explanation

The given equations can best be described as dependent because they represent the same line. When two equations are dependent, it means that they have an infinite number of solutions because all the points on one line will satisfy both equations. In this case, the equations represent the same line, so any point on that line will satisfy both equations. Therefore, the equations are dependent and have an infinite number of solutions.

Submit
23) The above equations can best be described as :

Explanation

The given equations can best be described as dependent because they represent the same line. This means that they have an infinite number of solutions, as any point on the line satisfies both equations. Therefore, the equations are not inconsistent (parallel lines with no solutions) or intersecting (having one unique pair of solutions).
