When you use the substitution method how can you tell that a has an infinite number of solutions?

If the process of substituting leads to an identity rather than an equation then the system has infinitely many solutions.


If a dependent system of equations is solved how many solutions will there be?

if a dependent system of equation is solved, how many solutions will there be?


How many solutions does an inconsistent equation have?

An inconsistent equation (or system of equations) is one that has no possible solutions. That is precisely why we call it inconsistent; there is no solution set that can be substituted for its variable or variables that will make the equation (or system) true.


When system of linear equations is graphed how is the graph of each equation related to the solutions of that equation?

When a system of linear equations is graphed, each equation is represented by a straight line on the coordinate plane. The solutions to each equation correspond to all the points on that line. The intersection points of the lines represent the solutions to the entire system; if the lines intersect at a point, that point is the unique solution. If the lines are parallel, there are no solutions, and if they overlap, there are infinitely many solutions.


When a system of linear equations is graphed how is the graph of each equation related to the solutions of that equation?

When a system of linear equations is graphed, each equation represents a line in a coordinate plane. The solutions to each equation correspond to the points on that line. The intersection points of the lines represent the solutions to the system as a whole, indicating where the equations are satisfied simultaneously. If the lines intersect at a single point, there is a unique solution; if they are parallel, there are no solutions; and if they coincide, there are infinitely many solutions.

What is infinite solutions?

The equation or a system of equations having infinite solutions is called identity/identities. (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2 is an identity. It has infinite solutions. The equation is true for all values of a and b.

What does one solution mean in math?

An equation may have zero, one, or more solutions (this is also true for a system of equations). The equation 2 + x = 5 has only solution, for example. x can only equal 3, so there is one solution. (An example of an equation with more that one solution is x2 = 4. In this case x can equal 2 or -2, so this equation has two solutions. An example of an equation with an infinite number of solutions is x + 6 = 3*2 + x. x can equal any number to make this equation true, so it has an infinite number of solutions. The equation x = x + 1 is an example of an equation with no solutions.)

What is a dependent system?

A dependent system is defined as "a system of equations that has infinite solutions." It is an equation that is used in various mathematical situations.


What is system dependability?

A dependent system is defined as "a system of equations that has infinite solutions." It is an equation that is used in various mathematical situations.


How many solutions does a system of equations have?

It depends on the equation. It could have one, it could have an infinite number.


What type of system equation produces the solution set infinite solution?

If the equations of the system are dependent equations, which represent the same line; therefore, every point on the line of a dependent equation represents a solution. Since there are an infinite number of points on a line, there is an infinite number of simultaneous solutions. For example, 3x + 2y = 8 6x + 4y = 16

What does it mean if there are an infinite number of solutions to a system of linear equations?

Any two numbers that make one of the equations true will make the other equation true.


Does this system of equations have one solution no solutions or an infinite number of solutions x - 2y equals -6 and x-2y equals 2?

x - 2y = -6 x - 2y = 2 subtract the 2nd equation from the 1st equation 0 = -8 false Therefore, the system of the equations has no solution.
