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

Why a system of linear equations cannot have exactly two solutions?

A system of linear equations can only have: no solution, one solution, or infinitely many solutions.


Can a system of linear equations in two variables have infinitely solutions?

Yes.

None, one or infinitely many.


How many solutions did this linear system have?

To determine how many solutions a linear system has, we need to analyze the equations involved. A linear system can have one unique solution, infinitely many solutions, or no solution at all. This is usually assessed by examining the coefficients and constants of the equations, as well as using methods like substitution, elimination, or matrix analysis. If the equations are consistent and independent, there is one solution; if they are consistent and dependent, there are infinitely many solutions; and if they are inconsistent, there are no solutions.


Kinds of system of linear equation in two variables?

There are three kinds:the equations have a unique solutionthe equations have no solutionthe equations have infinitely many solutions.

How many possible solutions can a system of two linear equations in two unknowns have?

A system of two linear equations in two unknowns can have three possible types of solutions: exactly one solution (when the lines intersect at a single point), no solutions (when the lines are parallel and never intersect), or infinitely many solutions (when the two equations represent the same line). Thus, there are three potential outcomes for such a system.


How many solutions does the system of linear equations shown have?

As there is no system of equations shown, there are zero solutions.


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.


When solving a system of equations by elimination you find what?

You find a solution set. Depending on whether the equations are linear or otherwise, consistent or not, the solution set may consist of none, one, several or infinitely many possible solutions to the system.


What are the three types of possible solutions to a system of equations?

If the equations are linear, they may have no common solutions, one common solutions, or infinitely many solutions. Graphically, in the simplest case you have two straight lines; these can be parallel, intersect in a same point, or actually be the same line. If the equations are non-linear, they may have any amount of solutions. For example, two different intersecting ellipses may intersect in up to four points.
