The graph of a system of equations with the same slope will have no solution, unless they have the same y intercept, which would give them infinitely many solutions. Different slopes means that there is one solution.

Systems of equations with different slopes and different y-intercepts have no solutions?

No the only time that a system of equations would have no solutions is when the two equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts which would mean that they are parallel lines. However, if they have different slopes and different y-intercepts than the solution would be where the two lines intersect.


How do you know if a system has one solution?

If the equations or inequalities have the same slope, they have no solution or infinite solutions. If the equations/inequalities have different slopes, the system has only one solution.


Can you determine whether a system of two linear equations has one solution an infinite number of solutions or no solution by simply?

Yes, you can determine the nature of a system of two linear equations by analyzing their slopes and intercepts. If the lines represented by the equations have different slopes, the system has one solution (they intersect at a single point). If the lines have the same slope but different intercepts, there is no solution (the lines are parallel). If the lines have the same slope and the same intercept, there are infinitely many solutions (the lines coincide).


A system of two linear equations has exactly one solution if?

The slopes (gradients) of the two equations are different.


How many solutions would you expect for this system of equations?

To determine the number of solutions for a system of equations, one would typically analyze the equations' characteristics—such as their slopes and intercepts in the case of linear equations. If the equations represent parallel lines, there would be no solutions; if they intersect at a single point, there is one solution; and if they are identical, there would be infinitely many solutions. Without specific equations, it's impossible to provide a definitive number of solutions.


When graphing a system of equations with infinitely many solutions the slopes of the two lines will be?

When graphing a system of equations with infinitely many solutions, the slopes of the two lines will be equal, as they represent the same line. Additionally, the lines will coincide, meaning every point on one line is also a point on the other. This occurs when both equations are essentially the same, differing only by a constant factor.


If a system of equations is inconsitient how many solutions will it have?

If a system of equations is inconsistent, there are no solutions.


What is the solution to system of equations in which the two lines given have different slopes?

When two lines in a system of equations have different slopes, they intersect at exactly one point. This means the system has a unique solution, which corresponds to the coordinates of the intersection point of the two lines. You can find this point by solving the equations simultaneously using methods such as substitution or elimination.


How many solutions does the system of linear equations shown have?

As there is no system of equations shown, there are zero solutions.


What are the possible solutions for a system of equations?

The system of equations can have zero solutions, one solution, two solutions, any finite number of solutions, or an infinite number of solutions. If it is a system of LINEAR equations, then the only possibilities are zero solutions, one solution, and an infinite number of solutions. With linear equations, think of each equation describing a straight line. The solution to the system of equations will be where these lines intersect (a point). If they do not intersect at all (or maybe two of the lines intersect, and the third one doesn't) then there is no solution. If the equations describe the same line, then there will be infinite solutions (every point on the line satisfies both equations). If the system of equations came from a real world problem (like solving for currents or voltages in different parts of a circuit) then there should be a solution, if the equations were chosen properly.


Does this system of equations have one solution no solutions or an infinite number of solutions 2x - y equals 8 and x plus y equals 1?

Solve both equations for y, that is, write them in the form y = ax + b. "a" is the slope in this case. Since the two lines have different slopes, when you graph them they will intersect in exactly one point - therefore, there is one solution.


Imagine that you are given two linear equations in slope-intercept form. You notice that the slopes are different but the y-intercepts are the same. How many solutions would you expect for this system?

infinintly many. for apex.
