Solve the System by Using Any Method $$y = \frac { 7 } { 8 } x + 3$$

question 14

Multiple Choice

Solve the system by using any method. If a system does not have one unique solution, state whether the
system is inconsistent or whether the equations are dependent.
- $$y = \frac { 7 } { 8 } x + 3$$
$8 y - 7 x = 24$

• A) \(\left\{ ( x , y ) \mid y = \frac { 7 } { 8 } x + 3 \right\} ;\) The equations are dependent.
• B) \{ \} ; The system is inconsistent.
• C) \(\left\{ \left( \frac { 3 } { 7 } , \frac { 27 } { 8 } \right) \right\}\)
• D) \(\{ ( 0,3 ) \}\)
