ACoincident
BConcurrent
CConvergent
DConsequent
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Coincident
1. Dependent equations describe exactly the same set of points.
2. Drawing both leaves one line sitting on top of the other.
3. When we graph two dependent equations, we get coincident lines.
4. So the answer is coincident.
