Which of the following pairs is inconsistent?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: x + 4y = 6 and 2x + 8y = 13

In option A, \(a_1/a_2=1/2\) and \(b_1/b_2=4/8=1/2\), but \(c_1/c_2=6/13\). Thus, \(a_1/a_2=b_1/b_2\ne c_1/c_2\), so the two lines are distinct and parallel and the pair has no solution. Hence, it is inconsistent. In option C, all three ratios are equal, so the pair is dependent and consistent. Exam tip: For an inconsistent pair, check whether \(a_1/a_2=b_1/b_2\ne c_1/c_2\).
