To fill: The blank in the statement “A system equations is
Answer to Problem 9SGR
The complete statement is “A system equations is inconsistent if it has no solutions”.
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The statement “A system equations is
Consider the provided statement “A system equations is
Consider the system of linear equations with three variables.
Recall that parallel lines have no solution because they never intersect.
Two lines are said to be parallel if the ratio of the coefficients of the lines are equal.
Suppose take an equation of line with three variables as,
Now, multiply the coefficient of equation by three to obtain the second equation
Take a random third equation
Now, system of equations so formed is,
Since, first two equations are parallel because the coefficients have same ratio so the system has no solution. Because two lines out of three are parallel.
Thus, the complete statement is “A system equations is inconsistent if it has no solutions”.
