Can systolic blood pressure equal blood pressure diaslotic?

Answer:
This is impossible. Systolic pressure is the pressure in the artery during the heart contractions. Diastolic pressure is during heart relaxation. Picture this, and you'd see that it's impossible to have diastolic pressure equal or greater than systolic pressure.
