What to Focus On
- A linear equation in two variables: ax + by + c = 0 (a, b not both zero)
- A pair of linear equations uses the SAME two variables in both equations
- One equation → infinitely many solutions; Two equations → possibly unique solution
- Each linear equation represents a straight line on a coordinate graph
- Intersecting lines → Unique solution → Consistent (a₁/a₂ ≠ b₁/b₂)
- Coincident lines → Infinite solutions → Dependent & Consistent (a₁/a₂ = b₁/b₂ = c₁/c₂)
- Rewrite ALL equations in standard form ax + by + c = 0 before comparing ratios
- Three cases: a₁/a₂ ≠ b₁/b₂ (unique), a₁/a₂ = b₁/b₂ = c₁/c₂ (infinite), a₁/a₂ = b₁/b₂ ≠ c₁/c₂ (none)
- For 'find k' problems, set up ratio equations and solve for k, then verify ALL conditions
Common Mistakes to Avoid
If a1/a2 = b1/b2, the system always has infinitely many solutions
In the substitution method, you can substitute into ANY equation — the choice doesn't matter for the final answer but mistakes don't happen
In the elimination method, you always add the equations — subtraction is wrong
