What is a system of equations?

Back

A set of two or more equations with the same variables that are solved together.

Front

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

Back

The lines representing the equations are parallel and never intersect.

Front

What does it mean if a system of equations has exactly one solution?

Back

The lines representing the equations intersect at one point.

Front

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

Back

The lines representing the equations are the same line, overlapping completely.

Front

How can you determine the number of solutions in a system of equations?

Back

By analyzing the slopes and y-intercepts of the lines represented by the equations.

Front

What is the significance of the slope in a linear equation?

Back

The slope indicates the steepness and direction of the line.

Front

How do you find the solution to a system of equations graphically?

Back

By plotting the equations on a graph and identifying the point(s) where they intersect.

Front

What is an ordered pair?

Back

An ordered pair is a pair of numbers used to represent a point on a coordinate plane, written as (x, y).

What is the substitution method in solving systems of equations?

Back

A method where one equation is solved for one variable, and that expression is substituted into the other equation.
