In a system of linear equations, the slope of one line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the other line. Is this system independent, dependent, or inconsistent?
The system in the linear equation with the slope of one line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the other line which means this system is independent. An Independent equation of a number in a system of a consistent equations has a system with at least one solution that can be greater than the number of unknowns.
