1. A consistent system of equations is a system with __________. the same line parallel lines intersecting lines and lines that have the same slope intersecting lines and lines that have the same equation 2. The graph of a system of equations with different slopes will have no solutions. Always Sometimes Never

i feel like it either A or D for the first one @Kainui

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Consistent system of equations has a one solution or infinitely many solutions. (intersecting or overlapping lines) A system that will have no solution when the slope of lines are the same but they have different y-intercepts.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so is 2 sometimes?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the question says "different slopes" and i said that the lines will have \(no\) solutions \(if\) the "slope of lines are the same but they have different y-intercepts." Different slopes will always have a solution (unless the lines are skewed in 3D).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so never

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok but i still don't get 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

"Consistent system of equations has a one solution or infinitely many solutions. (\(\Large intersecting\) or overlapping lines)" overlapping means that the lines have same slope.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think its D though

OpenStudy (anonymous):

am I right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, you are right. i forgot to tell same slope and same intercepts :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats fine thank you zoo much! :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

soo*

OpenStudy (anonymous):

welcome :)
