Take Note: Consider solving systems of linear equations that have no solution and those that have infinitely many solutions. Classify each item in the left column below based on the type of system it represents.
- The graph reveals two lines that are the same (lines that overlap one another).
- The graph reveals two lines that are parallel to one another.
- The system simplifies to a false statement like 2=7.
- The system simplifies to an identity like 5 = 5.
- Systems with infinitely many solutions
