CW Solving Systems Graphically Kiser

Front

What is a system of equations?

Back

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

Front

What does it mean to solve a system of equations graphically?

Back

It means to find the point(s) where the graphs of the equations intersect.

Front

What is an ordered pair?

Back

A pair of numbers (x, y) that represent a point on a coordinate plane.

Front

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

Back

It means the lines representing the equations are parallel and never intersect.

Front

What is the solution to the system of equations represented by the intersection of two lines?

Back

The coordinates of the point where the two lines intersect.

Front

How can you determine the solution of a system of equations from a graph?

Back

By identifying the coordinates of the intersection point of the graphed lines.

Front

What is the significance of the x-coordinate in an ordered pair?

Back

It represents the horizontal position on the coordinate plane.

Front

What is the significance of the y-coordinate in an ordered pair?

Back

It represents the vertical position on the coordinate plane.

Front

What does it mean if two lines intersect at a single point?

Back

It means the system of equations has one unique solution.

Front

What is the graphical representation of a system with infinitely many solutions?

Back

The two lines overlap completely, representing the same line.
