Study Notes

Key Terms in Linear Equations

  • Consistent: A system of equations with at least one solution.
  • Inconsistent: A system of equations that has no solutions.
  • Independent: A system of equations with exactly one unique solution.
  • Dependent: A system of equations that has infinitely many solutions.

Relationships Based on Slopes and Intercepts

  • When two equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts, the system is classified as inconsistent.
  • When two equations have the same slope and the same y-intercept, the system is classified as consistent-dependent.
  • When two equations have different slopes, the system is classified as consistent-independent, regardless of the y-intercepts.
