This algebra math tutorial explains how to determine whether a system of equations has one solution, infinitely many solutions, or no solution. It also covers how to classify them as consistent or inconsistent, as well as dependent or independent. The video begins with a review of key concepts and then works through some examples. Two methods are presented: the first method involves solving the system of equations, while the second method does not require solving; it only requires comparing the slopes and yintercepts of the equations.
