First find the slope of each line. If the slopes are different, then there is one solution. If the slopes are the same, you will need to find the full equations of each line. If the y-intercepts (b-value of y=mx + b) are different, there are no solutions. If they are the same, there are infinite solutions.

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

There are never two solutions with linear equations

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how can I find the slope of the line with the tables?

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

Use the slope formula.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok I know how to do that

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

Line 1 has points (-1,6) and (0,4) Line 2 has points (0,7) and (1,5)
