Consider the system: y = 3x + 5 y = ax + b what values for a and b make the system inconsistent? what values for a and b make the system consistent and dependent? explain.

When a = 3 and b ≠ 5, the system will be inconsistent because the lines will be parallel. When a = 3 and b = 5, the system will be consistent and dependent because they represent the same line.

Step-by-step explanation:

if you meant, "on the way from (3, 2) to (3, 14):

x does not change; y increases by 12.
