Answer:

Inconsistent

4x + 2y = 6   and   4y = -8x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Inconsistent: parallel lines, no solutions

Consistent dependent: same line, infinite solutions

Consistent independent: intersects at one point, one solution

Therefore, the pair of lines are INCONSISTENT.

Both lines have negative slopes.  As they are parallel, the slopes will be the same for both lines.

Therefore, solution is:

4x + 2y = 6   and   4y = -8x + 4

Because:

4x + 2y = 6  ⇒  y = -2x + 3

4y = -8x + 4  ⇒  y = -2x + 1

Both lines have same slope of -2
