If one (or more) of the equations can be expressed as a linear combination of the others.
This is equivalent to the statements
the matrix of coefficients does not have an inverse (or is singular),
or
the determinant of the matrix of coefficients is zero.
if a dependent system of equation is solved, how many solutions will there be?
dependent
A consistent independent system has exactly one solution, meaning the equations intersect at a single point. A consistent dependent system has infinitely many solutions, as the equations represent the same line or plane. An inconsistent system has no solutions, as the equations represent parallel lines or planes that never intersect.
The three quantities of solution for linear equations are consistent, inconsistent, and dependent. A consistent system has at least one solution, either unique or infinitely many. An inconsistent system has no solutions, meaning the equations represent parallel lines that never intersect. A dependent system has infinitely many solutions, indicating that the equations represent the same line in different forms.
Yes, a system of equations can have more than one solution if the equations represent the same line or plane in a geometric sense. In such cases, there are infinitely many solutions that satisfy all equations simultaneously. This typically occurs in systems of linear equations where the equations are dependent. Conversely, if the equations are independent, the system will either have a unique solution or no solution at all.
if a dependent system of equation is solved, how many solutions will there be?
A dependent system is defined as "a system of equations that has infinite solutions." It is an equation that is used in various mathematical situations.
Equations with the same solution are called dependent equations, which are equations that represent the same line; therefore every point on the line of a dependent equation represents a solution. Since there is an infinite number of points on a line, there is an infinite number of simultaneous solutions. For example, 2x + y = 8 4x + 2y = 16 These equations are dependent. Since they represent the same line, all points that satisfy either of the equations are solutions of the system. A system of linear equations is consistent if there is only one solution for the system. A system of linear equations is inconsistent if it does not have any solutions.

That would be the "solution" to the set of equations.
Infinite simultaneous solutions. (The two equations represent the same line) OR If your in nova net the answer should be ( Many )

One equation is simply a multiple of the other. Equivalently, the equations are linearly dependent; or the matrix of coefficients is singular.
