What does 'no solution' mean in the context of linear equations?

Back

'No solution' occurs when the equations represent parallel lines that never intersect, meaning there is no value for the variable that can satisfy both equations.

What does 'infinite solutions' mean in a linear equation?

Back

'Infinite solutions' occur when the equations represent the same line, meaning any value of the variable will satisfy the equation.
