When a system of linear equation is consistent and inconsistent? Give an example for each. Test the consistency and solve: x + y + z = 4 x + 2y + 2z = 2 2x + 2y + z = 5
When a system of linear equation is consistent and inconsistent? Give an example for each. Test the consistency and solve:
$x + y + z = 4$
$x + 2y + 2z = 2$
