Match The Graph With The Correct Set Of Equations For The Linear System Then Classify The System As Consistent And Dependent Consistent And Independent Or Incon class=

Answer:

Consistent independent

x + y = 0  and  -x + y = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Inconsistent: parallel lines, no solutions

Consistent dependent: same line, infinite solutions

Consistent independent: intersects at one point, one solution

Therefore, the pair of lines are Consistent independent

From inspection of the diagram:

One line has a negative slope and the other a positive slope.

One has a y-intercept of 0 and the other a y-intercept of -8.

Therefore, the solution is x + y = 0  and  -x + y = -8

Because:

x + y = 0  ⇒  y = -x  (neg slope, y-intercept of 0)

-x + y = -8  ⇒  y = x - 8  (pos slope, y-interecept at -8)
