In the equation y = mx + b, x is representing the y-intercept.

How many solutions does a consistent, dependent line have?

What does inconsistent mean?

Name the relation between y = 2x + 3 and y = -2x - 5

Parallel lines never intersect and have the same slope.

If a system of equations is independent it must be what?

What does it mean when an equation is independent?

Graph each system and determine the number of solutions it has: y = 3x + 10 and y = x - 2.

A system of equations can be inconsistent and independent.

If two lines have the same y-intercept, is there no solution?

What does it mean when an equation is dependent?

Are these equations consistent or inconsistent? y = 5x + 2 and y = 5x + 6.

When two equations have the same slope, they can either be dependent or inconsistent.

What form is y = mx + b in?

If a graph has no solution, you can describe it as...

Name the point at which the equations intersect. y = 2/3x and y = -2/3x + 4.
