If you get to a point where all the variables are eliminated and you have an inconsistent statement like:
-3 = 10

Another way is you get the equations in the same form, but the values on the right hand side are different.

2x + 3y = -3
2x + 3y = 10

Notice how you have something (2x + 3y) equal to two different values, so there is no possible solution that will satisfy both equations.

There is no solution when there's no point where all the graphs have the same value.... Example:
System of 2 equations... if the lines are parallel, they'll never touch, so there's no solution.

when there is no intersection of the graphs
