Is there a quick test to determine if a system of nonlinear equations is inconsistent. For example, suppose there is a system of equations such as:
3x cubed + 2y cubed = z cubed
2x cubed + 5y cubed = z cubed
Since these two equations are clearly not dependent, could we say that since they both are equal to the same term (z cubed), that they are therefore, inconsistent?
3x cubed + 2y cubed = z cubed
2x cubed + 5y cubed = z cubed
Since these two equations are clearly not dependent, could we say that since they both are equal to the same term (z cubed), that they are therefore, inconsistent?
