Special Types of Linear Systems Math Tech II Everette Keller
What is a Linear System? Two of more linear equations in the same variable form a system of linear equations, or simply a linear system.
What is a Type of Systems Have We Dealt With? Intersecting
Example of an Intersecting System y = 3x y = x + 4
What Other Types Of Systems Are There? Parallel Coinciding
Example of a Parallel System -x + y = 7 -x + y = 0
Example of a Parallel System Solve using a method other than graphing -x + y = 7 -x + y = 0 0 ≠ 7 Thus there is no solution
Example of a Coinciding System 2x + y = 2 4x + 2y = 4
Example of a Coinciding System Solve using a method other than graphing 2x + y = 2 4x + 2y = 4 4 = 4 Thus there are infinitely many solution
Summary of Special Types Of Linear Systems 1 – If the two equations have different slopes, then the system has one solution and the lines intersect 2 – If the two equations have the same slope but different y – intercepts, then the system has no solution and the lines are parallel 3 – If the two equations have the same slope and the same y – intercept, then the system has infinitely many solutions and the lines coincide
Example Find the solution to the linear system by any method -2x + 4y = 1 3x – 6y = 9
Example Find the solution to the linear system by any method 2x + y = 4 -4x – 2y = -8
White Board Example Find the solution to the linear system by any method 2x – 2y = 4 -x + y = -2
White Board Example Find the solution to the linear system by any method -x + y = 1 x – y = 1
White Board Example Find the solution to the linear system by any method 5x + 3y = 17 x – 3y = -2
