Graph the equations and find the intersection point.![\"system](\"/userfiles/image/Library/Algebra%202/system_equations_2x+y=-3_and_6x+3y=-9_graph(1).gif\")
The graphs do not intersect. The graph is one line.![\"\"](\"http://www.mathskey.com/userfiles/image/steps_images/step3.JPG\")
The lines do not intersect.The graph is one line.So there are no solutions that satisfy both equations. This system is consistent and dependent.![\"\"](\"http://www.mathskey.com/userfiles/image/steps_images/solution.JPG\")
The graph of system of linear equations that is consistent and dependent.
