Front

What is the significance of the solution to a system of equations?

Back

The solution represents the point(s) where the equations intersect, indicating the values of the variables that satisfy all equations.

Front

What does it mean if a system of equations has no solution?

Back

It means the lines represented by the equations are parallel and never intersect.

Front

What does it mean if a system of equations has infinitely many solutions?

Back

It means the equations represent the same line, and every point on that line is a solution.

Front

How do you determine the number of solutions in a system of inequalities?

Back

By analyzing the shaded regions of the graph; if they overlap, there are solutions; if not, there are none.
