Which cannot describe a system of linear equations?
F. no solution
H. infinite solutions
G. exactly two solutions
I. exactly one solution
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
To identify correct answer: Describe a system of linear equations.
Answer to Problem 4STP
Option G. exactly two solution, cannot describe a system of linear equations.
Explanation of Solution
System of any linear equations can have no solution, exactly one solution and infinite solution but it cannot have exactly 2 solutions. System of any linear equations cannot have exactly 2 solutions because two lines will meet at simple point.
Therefore, equality cannot have two solutions.
Therefore,Option G. exactly two solution, cannot describe a system oflinear equations.
