Lesson 5.4
Solving Special Systems of
Linear Equations
Students will be able to use method of graphing, substitution, and
elimination to determine no solution, one solution, or many solutions
on a systems of linear equations.
 Warm-Up #16 (3/20/2017)

Methods of Solving Systems of Linear Equations
• Graphing  both equations need to be in SLOPE-INTERCEPT FORM
• Example:
• Substitution both equations can be in any form
• Example:
• Example:
• Example:
• Elimination  both equations need to be in STANDARD FORM
• Example:
 Numbers of Solutions
•No Solutions
• Graph: parallel lines
• Solving the equations: when both sides are not
equal to each other. Ex.
 Numbers of Solutions
•One Solution
• Graph: intersecting lines
• Solving the equations: when you have an
answer. Ex. y = 3 and x = 1 (1,3)
 Numbers of Solutions
•Infinite Many Solutions
• Graph: it is the same line, so one line is on top
of the other line
• Solving the equations: when both sides are
equal to each other. Ex.
