Key concepts
-
To solve a system of linear equations by graphing
- Graph the first equation.
- Graph the second equation on the same rectangular coordinate system.
- Determine whether the lines intersect, are parallel, or are the same line.
- Identify the solution to the system.
If the lines intersect, identify the point of intersection. Check to make sure it is a solution to both equations. This is the solution to the system.
If the lines are parallel, the system has no solution.
If the lines are the same, the system has an infinite number of solutions.
- Check the solution in both equations.
- Determine the number of solutions from the graph of a linear system
- Determine the number of solutions of a linear system by looking at the slopes and intercepts
- Determine the number of solutions and how to classify a system of equations
-
