Front

Why do parallel lines never intersect?

Back

They have the same slopes.

Front

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

Back

Parallel lines.

Front

What is a system of equations?

Back

A set of two or more equations with the same variables.

Front

How can you determine if a system of equations has one solution?

Back

The lines intersect at one point.

Front

What does it mean if two lines are skew?

Back

They do not intersect and are not parallel.

Front

What is the graphical representation of a system of equations?

Back

Lines on a coordinate plane.

Front

What is the significance of the y-intercept in a linear equation?

Back

It is the point where the line crosses the y-axis.
