Vocabulary How can you tell when an equation in one variable has infinitely many solutions or no solution? When you solve for the variable, you will end up with a true statement, like 2 = 2, for an equation with no solution. You also will end up with a true statement for an equation with infinitely many solutions. When you solve for the variable, you will end up with a false statement, like 0 = 2, for an equation with no solution. You will also end up with a false statement for an equation with infinitely many solutions. When you solve for the variable, you will end up with a false statement, like 0 = 2, for an equation with no solution. You will end up with a true statement, like 2 = 2 for an equation with infinitely many solutions. When you solve for the variable, you will end up with a true statement, like 2 = 2, for an equation with no solution. You will end up with a false statement, like 0 = 2 for an equation with infinitely many solutions.

To tell when an equation in one variable has infinitely many solutions or no solution;

The condition for an equation with no solution warrants that the equation upon evaluation yields a false statement as in the case of 1 = 2. In this case, such an equation has no solution.

The condition for an equation with infinitely many solutions warrants that the equation upon evaluation yields a true statement as in the case of y + 5 = y + 5. In this case, such an equation has infinitely many solution.

Choice C) When you solve for the variable, you will end up with a false statement, like 0 = 2, for an equation with no solution. You will end up with a true statement, like 2 = 2 for an equation with infinitely many solutions.

For example, let's say we had the equation x = x+2. Subtracting x from both sides leads to 0 = 2 which is a false statement. No matter what we replace x with, the equation x = x+2 is always false. That's why we don't have any solutions here.

For an equation like x + 2 = x + 2, subtracting x from both sides leads to 2 = 2 which is always true. A true equation is one where the same number is on both sides. No matter what we replace x with, the equation will be true. Therefore, there are infinitely many solutions.
