Many problems in economics can be modelled by a system of linear equations: equalities r inequalities. Such systems are best solved using matrix algebra.
One solution
They will have 2 different solutions or 2 equal solutions and some times none depending on the value of the discriminant within the quadratic equation
The shaded region above or below the line in the graph of a linear inequality is called the solution region. This region represents all the possible values that satisfy the inequality. Points within the shaded region are solutions to the inequality, while points outside the shaded region are not solutions.
A single linear equation in two variables has infinitely many solutions. Two linear equations in two variables will usually have a single solution - but it is also possible that they have no solution, or infinitely many solutions.
Yes.
Yes.
No. For example, the solution to x ≤ 4 and x ≥ 4 is x = 4.
There is only one solution set. Depending on the inequalities, the set can be empty, have a finite number of solutions, or have an infinite number of solutions. In all cases, there is only one solution set.
A solution to a linear inequality in two variables is an ordered pair (x, y) that makes the inequality a true statement. The solution set is the set of all solutions to the inequality. The solution set to an inequality in two variables is typically a region in the xy-plane, which means that there are infinitely many solutions. Sometimes a solution set must satisfy two inequalities in a system of linear inequalities in two variables. If it does not satisfy both inequalities then it is not a solution.

One solution
They can have none, one or infinitely many.
If it is joined by an "and" it does. If it is joined by an "or" it does not.
They will have 2 different solutions or 2 equal solutions and some times none depending on the value of the discriminant within the quadratic equation
The solution to a system on linear equations in nunknown variables are ordered n-tuples such that their values satisfy each of the equations in the system. There need not be a solution or there can be more than one solutions.
You don't have to. Some people find that it makes subsequent calculations easier - but not all do.
