What is the graphical representation of a linear equation?

Back

A straight line on a coordinate plane.

What is the difference between a solid line and a dashed line in graphing inequalities?

Back

A solid line indicates that points on the line are included in the solution set, while a dashed line indicates they are not.

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.
