Question

It is possible for a system of linear equations to have no solutions.

Answer 1

Yes

Answer 2

yes

Answer 3

beat me to it...take it away la-mrc

Answer 4

If both equations result in parallel lines, then no solution.

Answer 5

If the equations are parallel, but not the same line, they will never intersect and therefore have no solutions.

Answer 6

lines are parallel (ie have the same slope)

Answer 7

When working these type of problems, if you lose you variable and end up with a false statement, like "4 = 7", then no solution.
