Consider the system of linear equations.
Part A How many solutions does the system have?
Part B How can you tell?
exactly one solution
The slopes of the equations are different so the lines will intersect at one point.
If a system of linear equations has an infinite number of solutions, what do you know about the graph of the system?
Sample answer: The lines are the same line.
When using substitution to solve a system of equations, how can you tell when a system has no solution?
A system has no solution when the resulting equation is a false statement.
How many solutions does the system of equations have?
no solution
What is Mrs. Williams favorite color?
Blue
Each equation in a system of linear equations has the same slope. What are the possible solutions the system could have?
The system could have either no solution or infinitely many solutions.
Solve the system of equations by graphing.
Then write the solution.
y = 2x - 6
y = -4x + 3
(1.5, −3)
one solution

Use substitution to solve the system of equations.
5x + y = -24
x + 3y = -2
x= -5, y = 1
(-5, 1)
one solution
Solve the system of equations. How many solutions does the system have?
y = -2x + 8
6x + 3y = 24
Infinitely many solutions

Suri makes $15 per hour and gets a weekly bonus of $25. Juan makes $14 per hour and gets a weekly bonus of $50. Is it possible for Suri and Juan to make the same amount of wages, y, by working the same number of hours, x, in one week? Explain
Yes; Sample answer: Since the slopes of each equation are different, there is one solution. The system will intersect at one point, 25 hours.
Solve the system of equations by graphing. Then write the solution.
-2y = -4x + 8
x + y = 5
(3, 2)
one solution
(submit graph for credit) - Quadrant 1
Use substitution to solve the system of equations. How many solutions are there?
1/2x - 1/3y = 5
x = 2/3y + 10
5 = 5;
Sample answer: There are infinitely many solutions since the statement is always true.
What is the solution to the system of equations? Explain
16x - 2 - 2y = 0
y = 8x + 4
No solution; Sample answer: −10 = 0 is not a true statement.
What does Mrs. Williams love to eat?
Will accept:
chicken
salad
Seafood
Which system of equations has no solution?
𝖠 3y = 1 + x 𝖡 4x - 5y = 3 𝖢 5x + 4y = 1 𝖣 y = -3x + 4
y = -2x + 5 -3 = 4x - 5y 4x - 2y = 4 y = -3/4x + 1
B
Solve the system of equations by graphing
4x + 6y = 8
y = -2/3x + 1/3
Sample answer: There is no solution because the lines are parallel.

Use substitution to solve the system of equations
y = 4.5x + 7.5
y = -3.5x - 4.5
x= -1.5, y= 0.75
(-1.5, 0.75)
one solution
Nia sells pizzas. Large pizzas cost $8 each, and small pizzas cost $6 each. She sold 12 pizzas for $84. How many of each size pizza did Nia sell?
6 small and 6 large pizzas
How many kids does Mrs. Williams have? and How many went to college?
Mrs. Williams have 4 children, and 3 went to college.
Which system of equations has infinitely many solutions?
𝖠 3y = -5x + 7 𝖡 3y = x - 4 𝖢 2x + y = 2 𝖣 2y = 3x + 6
3x = -5y - 7 3x - 9y = -12 -4x - 2y = 4 4y = 6x + 12

The total cost, c, of belonging to two different gyms for m months is shown on the graph. What is the solution of the system? Explain what it means in the situation.
(4, 250); Sample answer: At 4 months, the cost for each gym is the same, $250.
Tickets to a school play cost $3 for students and $8 for adults. On opening night, $1,000 was collected and 150 tickets sold. How many of each kind of ticket were sold? Write a system of equations and use substitution to solve.
Sample answer: s + a = 150 and 3s + 8a = 1,000;
40 student tickets and 110 adult tickets were sold
A 40-question test has 132 possible points. There are m 5-point questions and n 1-point questions. How many of each type of question is on the test?
m= 23
n= 17
