A system of equations may have any amount of solutions. If the equations are linear, the system will have either no solution, one solution, or an infinite number of solutions. If the equations are linear AND there are as many equations as variables, AND they are independent, the system will have exactly one solution.

If a system of equations is inconsitient how many solutions will it have?

If a system of equations is inconsistent, there are no solutions.


How many solutions does an inconsistent system of equations have?

If a system is inconsistent it cannot have any solutions.A system of equations is considered inconsistent when the lines are parallel which means they never intersect so there are no solutions.A system is considered consistent when they intersect at one point and have one solution (Also known as an independent system of equations).Dependent Systems are when the lines coincide (the same equation) so they have an infinite number of solutions.


What is consistent system?

A consistent system of equations is one in which there is at least one set of values for the variables that satisfies all the equations simultaneously. In graphical terms, this means that the lines or planes represented by the equations intersect at one or more points. A consistent system can be classified as either independent (with a unique solution) or dependent (with infinitely many solutions). In contrast, an inconsistent system has no solutions, meaning the equations represent parallel lines or planes that do not intersect.


How many solutions does a system of linear equations have if it is inconsistant?

A set of equations is inconsistent, if its solution set is empty.


Solve this system of equations using the addition method x plus y equals 6?

When talking about a "system of equations", you would normally expect to have two or more equations. It is quite common to have as many equations as you have variables, so in this case you should have two equations.

How many solutions does the system of linear equations shown have?

As there is no system of equations shown, there are zero solutions.


How many solutions does the nonlinear system of equations graphed when the graph open up and down?

A system of equations means that there are more than one equations. The answer depends on the exact function(s).

Why a system of linear equations cannot have exactly two solutions?

A system of linear equations can only have: no solution, one solution, or infinitely many solutions.

How many solutions exist for the following system of equations?

The answer follows:


How many solutions does an independent system of equations have?

It depends. Partly on the domain over which your system of equations is defined - are they integer solutions? Reals or complex numbers? Are the equations linear or more complicated?In any case, there can be none, one or many - including infinitely many.If the system is inconsistent ega + b = 3a + b = 2then there are no solutions.If the system is incomplete (the relevant matrix is singular), you have an infinite number:a + b + c = 1a + 2b + 3c = 2has an infinite number of solutions.A set of n independent linear equations in n unknowns will have a unique solution.A single equation such as (a-2)2 + (b-3)2 + (c-7.5)2 = 0has a unique real-number solution since each on the brackets MUST be zero.
