Answered by maham237 @



X + 2y = 5
x = 5 - 2y

2x + 4y = 3
2(5-2y) + 4y = 3
10 - 4y + 4y = 3
10 ≠ 3

5x + 2y = 3
5(5-2y) + 2y = 3
25 - 10y + 2y = 3
-8y = 3 - 25
-8y = -22
y = -22/-8
y = 2.75

6x + 12y = 30
6(5-2y) + 12y = 30
30 -12y + 12y = 30
30 = 30

3x + 4y = 8
3(5-2y) + 4y = 8
15 - 6y + 4y = 8
-2y = 8 - 15
-2y = -7
y = -7/-2
y = 3.5

An inconsistent system is a system of equation that has NO SOLUTIONS.

2x + 4y = 3 is the equation to be paired with x + 2y = 50 to create an inconsistent system.
