What does it mean to solve a system of equations by elimination?

Back

Solving by elimination involves adding or subtracting equations to eliminate one variable, making it easier to solve for the other variable.

What is the standard form of a linear equation?

Back

The standard form of a linear equation is Ax + By = C, where A, B, and C are integers, and A should be non-negative.

How do you determine if a system of equations has no solution?

Back

A system has no solution if the equations represent parallel lines, which means they never intersect.

How do you determine if a system of equations has infinitely many solutions?

Back

A system has infinitely many solutions if the equations represent the same line, meaning they overlap completely.
