Front

What does it mean for two lines to be parallel in a system of equations?

Back

Parallel lines have the same slope but different y-intercepts, meaning they never intersect and have no solutions.

Front

How do you determine if a point is a solution to a system of equations?

Back

Substitute the x and y values of the point into each equation. If both equations are true, the point is a solution.

Front

What is the graphical representation of a solution to a system of equations?

Back

The point where the graphs of the equations intersect.
