Answer:
The given pair of linear equations are not coincident.
Step-by-step explanation:
If a pair of lines are coincident, then they must have infinitely many solutions.
Condition for infinitely many solutions is:
a1/a2 = b1/b2 = c1/c2
Here, for the given two linear equations —
3/4 = -4/3 = 12/12 which does not satisfy the above condition.
Hence the given pair of linear equations do not coincide.
Hope it helps.
