MCQ
If a pair of linear equations in two variables is consistent, then the lines represented by two equations are:
  • A
    Intersecting.
  • B
    Parallel.
  • C
    Always coincident.
  • Intersecting or coincident.

Answer

Correct option: D.
Intersecting or coincident.
If a pair of linear equations in two variables is consistent, then its solution exists.
$\therefore$ The lines represented by the equations are either intersecting or coincident.
Hence, correct choice is $d.$
