What are the three kinds of linear equations?
The three types of linear equations are: Consistent Dependent, Consistent Independent, and Inconsistent.
What are the three types of systems of linear equations and their characteristics?
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.
What the system of linear equation in two variabes which has no solution?
For two linear equations, they are equations representing parallel lines. (The lines must not be concurrent because if they are, you will have an infinite number of solutions.) For example y = mx + b and y = mx + c where b and c are different numbers are two non-concurrent parallel lines. The equations have no solution. With more than two linear equations there is much more scope. Unless ALL the lines meet at one point, the system will not have a solution. So a system consisting of equations defining the three lines of a triangle, for example, will not have a solution.
How many of the different kinds of solution sets are possible in two linear equations?
Three different kinds: none, one and infinitely many.
How many solutions does a system of linear equations in three variables have?
