A system of linear equation consists of two or more linear equations with the two or more same variables. Such equations are called system of equations (or) simultaneous equations (or) a pair of equations.
Example:
x + y = 5 is one linear equation.
2x – y = 4 is another linear equation.
But x + y = 5, 2x – y = 4 together they form system of linear equation.
The solution to a system of linear equations in two variables is any ordered pair that satisfies each equation independently.
