Number of solutions to equations

Name: Number of solutions to equations
Uploaded: 2023-10-31T23:49:08.081254081Z
Description: A linear equation could have exactly 1, 0, or infinite solutions. If we can solve the equation and get something like x=b where b is a specific number, then we have one solution. If we end up with a statement that's always false, like 3=5, then there's no solution. If we end up with a statement that's always true, like 5=5, then there are infinite solutions.
