A system of linear equations usually has a single solution, but sometimes it can have no solution (parallel lines) or infinite solutions (same line). This article reviews all three cases. One solution.

A simple equation has three cases of solutions, where it can have either a single solution, no solution, or infinite solutions.
- A system of linear equations mostly has a single solution. We can check the following example to understand better.
For example: Let y=-6x+8
and 3x+y=-4
=> y=-3x-4
After plotting the graph they will intersect at one point, so it has a single solution.
- A system has no solutions when the lines are parallel.
For example, y=-3x+9
y=-3x-7
The slope will be -3, therefore the lines must be parallel so they have no solutions.
- For equations that are equivalent, we will get infinite solutions.
For example, 6x-4y=12
3x-2y=6.
If we multiply the second equation by 2 we will get the first equation hence they both are equivalent. In this scenario, we will get infinite solutions.
