MCQ
If a pair of linear equations in two variables is consistent, then the lines represented by two equations are :
- AAlways coincident
- ✓Intersecting or coincident
- CIntersecting
- DParallel
✓
Answer
Correct option: B.
Intersecting or coincident
If a pair of linear equations in two variables is consistent, then its solution exists.
$\therefore$ The lines represented by the equations are either intersecting or coincident.
