...
Subject Area: Mathematics (B.E.S.T.) | Grade Level: 8
Lesson Length: 45 minutes
Keywords/Tags: systems of equations; types of solutions
Lesson Description: Students should be able to analyze and explain the solutions to systems of equations presented numerically, algebraically, and graphically. When examining a graph, students should explain the significance of the point of intersection in a given context.

  • MA.8.AR.4.2 Given a system of two linear equations represented graphically on the same coordinate plane, determine whether there is one solution, no solution or infinitely many solutions.
  • MA.8.AR.4.3 Given a mathematical or real-world context, solve systems of two linear equations by graphing.

Quiz : Types of Solutions to Systems of Equations
Instructions: Please complete this quiz by choosing the correct answer for each question. You can take this quiz as many times needed.
Question #1

Determine the number of solutions of the linear system:

14x – 5y = 123
14x – 5y = 73

Question #2
Describe the difference between a solution that is consistent and an inconsistent one.
Question #3

If a system of linear equations has one solution, what does this mean about the two lines? 

Question #4

If a system of linear equations has infinitely many solutions, what does this mean about the two lines? 

Question #5

Solve this system of equations by graphing.

y = 1/2x + 2

y = -3x + 9
