Why cant a system of linear equations cannot have exactly two solutions?

Because linear lines can't intersect in two seperate places. They either intersect at one specific coordinate, or the lines are on top of each other and they intersect at every point.


What is the point at which the lines intersect in a system of linear equations?

The coordinates of the point of intersection represents the solution to the linear equations.


Can a system of linear equation have more than one solutions?

No. A linear equation represents a straight line and the solution to a set of linear equations is where the lines intersect; two straight lines can only intersect at most at a single point - two straight lines may be parallel in which case they will not intersect and there will be no solution. With more than two linear equations, it may be that they do not all intersect at the same point, in which case there is no solution that satisfies all the equations together, but different solutions may exist for different subsets of the lines.


When is system of linear inequalities have no solution?

When the lines never intersect, usually when they are parallel.


How wold you classify two linear equations have the same y-intercept and different slopes?

Two linear equations (or lines) with the same y-intercept and different slopes are intersecting lines. They intersect at the y-intercept. If the slopes are negative reciprocals (ex: one slope is 3 and one slope it -1/3) then they are perpendicular lines.


When two lines intersect how many points do they have in common?

Two lines intersect at one point. If in two dimensions, and they do not intersect they are parallel. The other option in two dimensions is they are the co-linear, that is they are the same line, in which case they intersect at all points.


Why do people call it a system when two lines intersect?

They do not. A set of lines can also be considered as a system of linear equations. But the fact that there is such a system does not mean that the lines intersect.


Are perpendicular lines considered nonlinear?

No, two lines perpendicular to each other are wriiten as two separate equations. Both are linear.


Is y equals -4x plus 1 perpendicular?

It is perpendicular to a family of other linear equations: of the form 4y = x + c


When a linear equation crosses the x axis what is the point on the line called?

It is called the x-intersect.


If a system of linear equations has exactly one solution then the two lines are what?

perpendicular


Does all angles formed by perpendicular lines form a linear pair?

yes
