The two equations would yield no solution if they are dependent. That means that both equations are equivalent. You can determine this by manipulating the equations through simplification. For example, a dependent equation would be:

3x - 4y = 2

3x/2 - 2y = 1

Another dependent equation is when you multiply the whole equation with a number, say 3.

(3x - 4y = 2) 3

9x - 12y = 6
