Solve the following system of equations by graphing. If this system is inconsis
identify the type of constraint.
y = 4x + 4
-12x + 3y = 3

Answer:

Inconsistent: parallel lines.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given system of equations:

[tex]\begin{cases}y=4x+4\\-12x+3y=3\end{cases}[/tex]

Use arithmetic operations to isolate y in the second equation:

[tex]\implies -12x+3y+12x=3+12x[/tex]

[tex]\implies 3y=12x+3[/tex]

[tex]\implies\dfrac{3y}{3}=\dfrac{12x}{3}+\dfrac{3}{3}[/tex]

[tex]\implies y=4x+1[/tex]

Therefore, we can see that both equations have the same slope and so the graphs of these equations are parallel.

The solution to a system of linear equations is the point of intersection.

As parallel lines never intersect, there are no solutions to this system and the system is said to be inconsistent.
