What system of equations has no solution?
A system of equations will have no solutions if the line they represent are parallel. Remember that the solution of a system of equations is physically represented by the intersection point of the two lines. If the lines don't intersect (parallel) then there can be no solution.
The two lines graphed below are parallel How many solutions are there to the system of equations?
Although there is no graph, the number of solutions is 0.
Does every pair of linear simultaneous equations have a solution?
Actually not. Two linear equations have either one solution, no solution, or many solutions, all depends on the slope of the equations and their intercepts. If the two lines have different slopes, then there will be only one solution. If they have the same slope and the same intercept, then these two lines are dependent and there will be many solutions (infinite solutions). When the lines have the same slope but they have different intercept, then there will be no point of intersection and hence, they do not have a solution.
How many solutions will a system of equations have if the graphs of the lines intersect?
A system of equations will have one solution if the graphs of the lines intersect. This is because the lines intersect at a single point. Let's say that point is (a, b). The x = a, y = b is the one and only solution for the system.
Why do some systems of equations have one solution?
If it is a linear system, then it could have either 1 solution, no solutions, or infinite solutions. To understand this, think of two lines (consider a plane which is just 2 dimensional - this represents 2 variables and 2 equations, but the idea can be extended to more dimensions).If the 2 lines intersect at a point, then that point represents a solution. If the lines are parallel, then they never intersect, and there is no solution. If the equations are such that they are just different ways of describing the same line, then they intersect at every point, so there are infinite solutions. If you have more than 2 lines then maybe some of them will intersect, but this is not a solution for the whole system. If all lines intersect at a single point, then that is the single solution for the whole system.If you have equations that describe something other than a straight line, then it's possible that they may intersect in more than one point.
How many solutions is it possible for a system of linear equations to have?
one solution; the lines that represent the equations intersect an infinite number of solution; the lines coincide, or no solution; the lines are parallel
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.
Why do we substitute zero for the value of y when finding the solutions of quadratic equations?
Because the solutions are found on the x axis when y is zero.
What system of equations has no solution?
A system of equations will have no solutions if the line they represent are parallel. Remember that the solution of a system of equations is physically represented by the intersection point of the two lines. If the lines don't intersect (parallel) then there can be no solution.
How many solutions can two lines have that intersect once?
Since the lines that intersect are the equations, if they intersect once they have one solution.
How do you solve for the point of intersection?
Finding the point of intersection using graphs or geometry is the same as finding the algebraic solutions to the corresponding simultaneous equations.
What is the solution of the system of linear equations?
The values for which the equations are solved. Graphically the intersection of the lines that are the solutions to the individual equations. The link below gives some explanations. The equations themselves will have to be given for a solution to be found.
