which statement about the following system is correct?
y=x-6
y=-x-2
a. the equations are independent because the lines intersect in one point.

b. the equations are independent because the equations represent parallel lines.

c. the equations are dependent because the lines are the same line.

d. the equations are dependent because the lines do not intersect.

answer:

b

step-by-step explanation:

the equations

(1)y = x - 6 has a slope of 1 and intercept y at -6

(2) y = x - 2 also has a slope of 1 and intercept y at -2

hence the two equations are independent and since they have the same slope and different intercepts on y, they are parallel lines.

the factors of 24 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 24. hope this ! mark brainliest! you v much! : )

4 candies

step-by-step explanation:

7 x 28 = 196

200 - 196 = 4 candies remaining.
