📚 Quick Study Guide
- 📈 One Solution: The lines intersect at one point. This means the system has a unique solution corresponding to the coordinates of that intersection point.
- 🚫 No Solution: The lines are parallel and never intersect. This indicates that the system is inconsistent and has no solution. They have the same slope but different y-intercepts.
- ♾️ Infinite Solutions: The lines are identical, meaning they overlap completely. This shows that the system is dependent, and any point on the line is a solution. The equations are multiples of each other.
- 📐 Slope-Intercept Form: Remember that a linear equation can be written in slope-intercept form: $y = mx + b$, where $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the y-intercept.
- ✍️ Parallel Lines: Parallel lines have the same slope ($m$) but different y-intercepts ($b$).
- 겹쳐진 Overlapping Lines: Overlapping lines have the same slope ($m$) and the same y-intercept ($b$).
