How can you tell if a linear system has infinitely many solutions?

The equations are the same, the graphed lines lie on top of one another, or the slope and y-intercept are the same.

4x + 2y = 8

2x + y = 4

Every point on 2x+y=4 is a solution.

When will a system of linear equations have no solution?

The lines are parallel or they have the same slope and different y-intercepts
