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

Back

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

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

Back

Substitute the point's coordinates into each equation; if both equations are true, the point is a solution.
