A system of linear equations is two or more simultaneous linear equations. In mathematics, a system of linear equations (or linear system) is a collection of linear equations involving the same set of variables.
A "system" of equations is a set or collection of equations that you deal with all together at once. Linear equations (ones that graph as straight lines) are simpler than non-linear equations, and the simplest linear system is one with two equations and two variables.
The answer will depend on what kinds of equations: there are linear equations, polynomials of various orders, algebraic equations, trigonometric equations, exponential ones and logarithmic ones. There are single equations, systems of linear equations, systems of linear and non-linear equations. There are also differential equations which are classified by order and by degree. There are also partial differential equations.
The answer depends on whether they are linear, non-linear, differential or other types of equations.
Any solution to a system of linear equations must satisfy all te equations in that system. Otherwise it is a solution to AN equation but not to the system of equations.
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.

Independence:The equations of a linear system are independent if none of the equations can be derived algebraically from the others. When the equations are independent, each equation contains new information about the variables, and removing any of the equations increases the size of the solution set.Consistency:The equations of a linear system are consistent if they possess a common solution, and inconsistent otherwise. When the equations are inconsistent, it is possible to derive a contradiction from the equations, such as the statement that 0 = 1.Homogeneous:If the linear equations in a given system have a value of zero for all of their constant terms, the system is homogeneous.If one or more of the system's constant terms aren't zero, then the system is nonhomogeneous.

Two equations are independent when one is not a linear combination of the other.
An independent system has one solution.
The pair of equations have one ordered pair that is a solution to both equations. If graphed the two lines will cross once.
If the system is for more than two variables there will be an infinite number of solutions since only two of the variables can be determined while the rest will be free to take any value. Also, technically, it does not matter what the system is independent of. What matters is that the linear equations are independent of one another.
Any system of linear equations can have the following number of solutions: 0 if the system is inconsistent (one of the equations degenerates to 0=1) 1 if the system is linearly independent infinity if the system has free variables and is not inconsistent.
The three types of linear equations are: Consistent Dependent, Consistent Independent, and Inconsistent.
A system of linear equations that has at least one solution is called consistent.
The solution of a system of linear equations is a pair of values that make both of the equations true.
