Number of Solutions

Front

What does it mean if two equations have one solution?

Back

The two lines intersect at exactly one point on the graph.

Front

What does it mean if two equations have no solution?

Back

The two lines are parallel and never intersect.

Front

What does it mean if two equations have infinitely many solutions (IMS)?

Back

The two lines are identical, meaning they overlap completely.

Front

How can you determine if two linear equations are parallel?

Back

If their slopes are equal but their y-intercepts are different.

Front

How can you determine if two linear equations are identical?

Back

If they have the same slope and the same y-intercept.

Front

What is the slope-intercept form of a linear equation?

Back

Back

No Solution (the lines are parallel).
