Flashcard 6-6M: System of linear equations

Front

What does the graph of a system of equations with no solution look like?

Back

The graph consists of parallel lines.

Front

How many solutions does a system of equations have if it has no solution?

Back

No solution.

Front

What is the solution to the system of equations if the answer is (1, -1)?

Back

(1, -1) is the solution.

Front

What is the y-intercept of a line if it is given as (0, -3)?

Back

The y-intercept is (0, -3).

Front

What is the slope if it is given as -3/5?

Back

The slope is -3/5.

Front

What is the zero of a function if it is given as -5?

Back

The zero is -5.

Front

What is the constant of variation if y varies with x when y is 7 and x is 14?

Back

The constant of variation is 1/2.

Front

What type of lines represent a system of equations with infinitely many solutions?

Back

The lines are coincident (the same line).

Front

What does it mean if two lines are skew?

Back

Skew lines do not intersect and are not parallel.

Front

What is the definition of a linear equation?

Back

A linear equation is an equation that makes a straight line when graphed.
