Question

Solutions of a linear equation are ___________________ that make the equation true.

Answer 1

The solution of a linear equation is the point that make the equation true.

Explanation:

The solution of a linear equation is the point that make the equation true.

A single variable linear equation is sufficient to get definite solution.

Let the equation be ax + b = 0, then the solution is
`x = - (b)/(a)`. Again, if we put
`x = - (b)/(a)` in the above equation then it must satisfy the equation i.e. it makes the equation true.

Again, in the case of a double variable linear equation, one system of equations is sufficient to solve the equations.

Let there are two equations of variables x and y

ax + by + c = 0 and

px + qy + r = 0.

If we solve the above two equations then we will get a definite solution say (m,n). Now, this solution (m,n) makes the two equations simultaneously true. (Answer)
