3. System of Equations
A system that contains 2 or more equations, the ordered pair that is its solution, is the solution to all equations in the system. A system can have 1 solution, many solutions, or no solutions.

4. Consistent/Inconsistent
A system that has at least one solution./ the system has no solutions

5. Independent/dependent
A consistent system has exactly one solution/ or infinite number of solutions.

6. Example 1 pg. 336 Number or solutions
Use the graph to determine whether each system is consistent or inconsistent and if it is independent or dependent. 1.) 𝑦=−𝑥+1 𝑦=−𝑥+4 2.) 𝑦=𝑥−3 𝑦=−𝑥+1 6 5 4 3 2 1 -3 -2 -1
𝑦=−𝑥+4
𝑦=−𝑥+1
𝑦=𝑥−3

11. Example 3 pg. 337 Write and solve a system of equations
Naresh rode 20 miles last week and plans to ride 35 miles per week. Diego rode 50 miles last week and plans to ride 25 miles per week. Predict the week in which Naresh and Diego will have ridden the same number of miles.
