Answer:

The point of intersection gives the solution set(s) of the associated system.

Explanation:

If we have a pair of simultaneous equations in 2 variables in x and y, then the point of intersection is the ordered pair (x,y).

This could be a unique intersection, only one point or infinitely many intersection.

This gives us the solution of the simultaneous equations.

Therefore the significance of the point of intersection of a pair of simultaneous equations is that, it gives us the solution set(s) of the associated system.
