Solving a system by graphing

Front

If a system of linear equations has infinitely many solutions, what does this mean about the two lines?

Back

The two lines are the same line.

Front

What does the slope of a line represent in a linear equation?

Back

The slope represents the rate of change of y with respect to x.

Front

What is the y-intercept of a line?

Back

The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis.
