One linear equation in two variable cannot be solved. It is possible to express either of the two variables in terms of the other but a solution is not possible.One linear equation in two variable cannot be solved.

-- If the equation has only one variable (like 'x' or 'y'), and the only power of the variable anywhere in the equation is '1', then the equation has one solution. -- If the variable appears raised to powers higher than '1', then there are as many solutions as the highest power of the variable. -- If the equation has two or more variables, then there are an infinite number of solutions.
Several methods exist. For example: solve one equation for one variable, replace that variable in the other equation. (Two simultaneous equations will often have two variables each.)
In a nonlinear equation, each variable must only have one solution.

That's the "solution" of the equation.
a solution
That's the "solution" to the equation described by the sentence.
Several methods exist. For example: solve one equation for one variable, replace that variable in the other equation. (Two simultaneous equations will often have two variables each.)
Isolating a single variable in terms of the rest of the equation provides a solution to that variable. That is, if you know the equation that equals the variable, then you can figure out its value.
