When the two equations actually represent the same line, the solution to the system will be all points on the line.
For example take the line y=x+2, if we multiply both sides of the equation by 2 we do not change anything about the line. So the equation 2y=2x+4 is really the same equation. The solution to the system y=x+2 and 2y=2x+4 is all the points ( all the real numbers) on the line. We often write this {(x,y)|y=x+2}

There is a system of linear equations with exactly two solutions is it true or false?
False. There can either be zero, one, or infinite solutions to a system of two linear equations.
If a system of equations is independent how many soultions will it have?
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 has many solutions what kind of system of equations is it?
Coincidental equations are really the same and are the same line. They have infinite solutions meaning that any solution for one will be a solution for the other.
What is a system of linear equations in two variables?
They are a set of equations in two unknowns such that any term containing can contain at most one of the unknowns to the power 1. A system of linear equations can have no solutions, one solution or an infinite number of solutions.
If a system of equations is inconsitient how many solutions will it have?
If a system of equations is inconsistent, there are no solutions.
