1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:00,450 2 00:00:00,450 --> 00:00:03,250 We're told to look at the coordinate grid above. 3 00:00:03,250 --> 00:00:04,830 I put it on the side here. 4 00:00:04,830 --> 00:00:07,599 Identify one system of two lines that 5 00:00:07,599 --> 00:00:09,910 has a single solution. 6 00:00:09,910 --> 00:00:12,689 Then identify one system of two lines that 7 00:00:12,689 --> 00:00:16,269 does not have a solution. 8 00:00:16,269 --> 00:00:18,655 So let's do the first part first. So a single solution. 9 00:00:18,655 --> 00:00:23,039 10 00:00:23,039 --> 00:00:26,369 And they say identify one system, but we can see here 11 00:00:26,370 --> 00:00:28,000 there's actually going to be two systems that 12 00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:29,649 have a single solution. 13 00:00:29,649 --> 00:00:32,228 And when we talk about a single solution, we're talking 14 00:00:32,228 --> 00:00:36,170 about a single x and y value that will satisfy both 15 00:00:36,170 --> 00:00:37,850 equations in the system. 16 00:00:37,850 --> 00:00:41,370 So if we look right here at the points of intersection, 17 00:00:41,369 --> 00:00:46,169 this point right there, that satisfies this equation y is 18 00:00:46,170 --> 00:00:48,969 equal to 0.1x plus 1. 19 00:00:48,969 --> 00:00:53,939 And it also satisfies, well, this blue line, but the graph 20 00:00:53,939 --> 00:00:58,179 that that line represents, y is equal to 4x plus 10. 21 00:00:58,179 --> 00:01:01,530 So this dot right here, that point represents a solution to 22 00:01:01,530 --> 00:01:02,460 both of these. 23 00:01:02,460 --> 00:01:04,950 Or I guess another way to think about it, it represents 24 00:01:04,950 --> 00:01:09,290 an x and y value that satisfy both of these constraints. 25 00:01:09,290 --> 00:01:12,890 So one system that has one solution is the system that 26 00:01:12,890 --> 00:01:19,879 has y is equal to 0.1x plus 1, and then this blue line right 27 00:01:19,879 --> 00:01:25,799 here, which is y is equal to 4x plus 10. 28 00:01:25,799 --> 00:01:28,019 Now, they only want us to identify one system of two 29 00:01:28,019 --> 00:01:29,649 lines that has a single solution. 30 00:01:29,650 --> 00:01:31,080 We've already done that. 31 00:01:31,079 --> 00:01:32,730 But just so you see it, there's actually another 32 00:01:32,730 --> 00:01:33,730 system here. 33 00:01:33,730 --> 00:01:37,380 So this is one system right here, or another system would 34 00:01:37,379 --> 00:01:40,129 be the green line and this red line. 35 00:01:40,129 --> 00:01:43,899 This point of intersection right here, once again, that 36 00:01:43,900 --> 00:01:47,740 represents an x and y value that satisfies both the 37 00:01:47,739 --> 00:01:56,929 equation y is equal to 0.1x plus 1, and this point right 38 00:01:56,930 --> 00:02:02,070 here satisfies the equation y is equal to 4x minus 6. 39 00:02:02,069 --> 00:02:05,239 40 00:02:05,239 --> 00:02:08,288 So if you look at this system, there's one solution, because 41 00:02:08,288 --> 00:02:11,019 there's one point of intersection of these two 42 00:02:11,020 --> 00:02:14,530 equations or these two lines, and this system also has one 43 00:02:14,530 --> 00:02:17,000 solution because it has one point of intersection. 44 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,509 Now, the second part of the problem, they say identify one 45 00:02:19,509 --> 00:02:22,949 system of two lines that does not have a single solution or 46 00:02:22,949 --> 00:02:24,739 does not have a solution, so no solution. 47 00:02:24,740 --> 00:02:27,689 48 00:02:27,689 --> 00:02:30,180 So in order for there to be no solution, that means that the 49 00:02:30,180 --> 00:02:34,840 two constraints don't overlap, that there's no point that is 50 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:39,659 common to both equations or there's no pair of x, y values 51 00:02:39,659 --> 00:02:41,359 that's common to both equations. 52 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:44,840 And that's the case of the two parallel lines here, this blue 53 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:46,229 line and this green line. 54 00:02:46,229 --> 00:02:50,409 Because they never intersect, there's no coordinate on the 55 00:02:50,409 --> 00:02:52,949 coordinate plane that satisfies both equations. 56 00:02:52,949 --> 00:02:56,419 So there's no x and y that satisfy both. 57 00:02:56,419 --> 00:02:59,379 So the second part of the question, a system that has no 58 00:02:59,379 --> 00:03:05,449 solution is y is equal to 4x plus 10, and then the other 59 00:03:05,449 --> 00:03:12,250 one is y is equal to 4x minus 6. 60 00:03:12,250 --> 00:03:17,680 And notice, they have the exact same slope, and they're 61 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:20,270 two different lines, they have different intercepts, so they 62 00:03:20,270 --> 00:03:22,659 never, ever intersect, and that's why 63 00:03:22,659 --> 00:03:24,599 they have no solutions. 64 00:03:24,599 --> 00:03:25,265
