Answer;

SYSTEM. Option B is correct

Explanations;

Linear equations are equations with the highest degree of 1. We can have a linear equation containing 2 or 3 variables or even more.

A typical example of a linear equation having two variables is 2x + y = 3 where x and y are the variables.

When we have two or more of these linear equations taken together, they become a system, hence, they are called SYSTEMS of linear equations.

Examples of two systems of linear equation is;

2x + 3y = 7

x - y = 8

This is a system of two equations containing two-variables

Another example of systems of linear equations containing 3-variables is;

a - b + c = 5

2a + 5b - c = 1

3a - 2b + 3c = 4
