Graph both equations on the same set of axes to see if there is a point of intersection. If there is, then there is at least one solution and it is consistent; otherwise it is inconsistent.
Explanation:
Graph both equations on the same set of axes to see if there is a point of intersection.
graph{(y-(-2x+4))(y-(-x+3))=0 [-1.882, 4.277, -0.307, 2.77]}
There is a solution at
Since there is at least one solution, this is consistent.
