What does it mean if two lines are parallel in a system of equations?

Back

They have no points in common, resulting in no solution.

What does it mean if two lines intersect in a system of equations?

Back

They have exactly one point in common, resulting in one solution.

If the equations y = 2x + 5 and y = 2x - 3 are graphed, what is the solution?

Back

No solution, as the lines are parallel.

What is the significance of the slopes of two lines in a system of equations?

Back

If the slopes are equal, the lines are parallel; if they are different, the lines will intersect.
