Learning Objective
I can solve linear equations with one variable that have one, none, or infinite solutions.
- 1
If solving a linear equation results in a statement like x = a, where a is a number, then the equation has one solution.
- 2
If solving a linear equation results in a false statement like 3 = 5, then the equation has no solutions.
- 3
If solving a linear equation results in a true statement like 5 = 5, then the equation has infinite solutions.
