| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Systems of Equations | Two or more equations with the same variables. |
| Consistent | A system of equations being consistent meaning it has no less than one solution. |
| Inconsistent | A system of equations being inconsistent meaning having no solutions. |
| Independent | A consistent system being independent meaning having exactly one solution. |
| Dependent | A consistent system being dependent meaning having infinite or endless solutions. |
| Substitution Method | Algebraic method in which one method is solved for a single variable in terms with the other. |
| Elimination Method | Algebraic method in which one variable is eliminated by subtracting or adding the equations. |
| System of Inequalities | Solved by finding the ordered pairs that satisfy all of the inequalities in the system. |
