Quite simply, the latter is a group of the former.
A system of linear equations is several linear equations taken together, each using the same group of unknowns. Usually, such a system provides one linear equation for each unknown (x, y, z, et al) that must be found (more complex systems can exist, though). You can use and manipulate these linear equations as you would a single linear equation to help solve for the unknowns. One way is to reduce all but one of the unknowns so that each can be expressed in terms of the remaining unknown and then solve for the remaining unknown which would in turn give you the others.

What are the importance of linear equation?
They are the simplest form of relationship between two variables. Non-linear equations are often converted - by transforming variables - to linear equations.
What is the difference between a linear equation and an quadratic equation?
A linear equation, when graphed, is always a line. A quadratic is a curve. Also, linear equations are of the form y=mx+b where m and b are arbitrary constants and quadratics are y=(x^2) +mx +b where m and b are arbitrary constants.
What are linear and nonlinear regression?
A linear equation is an equation that in math. It is a line. Liner equations have no X2. An example of a linear equation is x-2 A linear equation also equals y=mx+b. It has a slope and a y-intercept. A non-linear equation is also an equation in math. It can have and x2 and it is not a line. An example is y=x2+3x+4 Non linear equations can be quadratics, absolute value or expodentail equations.
Why Do you Study linear equations?
we study linear equation in other to know more about quadratic equation
Is the equation 3x-4 equals 12 linear or non linear?
It is a linear equation. The highest power of x in the equation is 1 (3x1-4=12) so its "degree" is 1, and equations of "degree 1" are called linear equations.
