Distinct and Coincident Lines
Distinct or Coincident lines
Ex.1 Solve for and using substitution
What do you notice?
Ex.2 Write a linear system with:
a) Infinitely many solutions b) No solution
What does the algebra look like when this happens? Solve each system by substitution.
a) Infinitely many solutions
b) No solution(Example 1)
When solving a linear system algebraically:
Exactly One Solution:You can find the value of one of the
variables and then solve for the otherNo Solution:You end up with an untrue statement
e.g. 0x = 2 is never trueInfinitely Many Solutions:You end up with 0x = 0, which is true for
any value of x
