2. System of linear equations - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_of_linear_equations

   The simplest method for solving a system of linear equations is to repeatedly eliminate variables. This method can be described as follows: In the first equation, solve for one of the variables in terms of the others. Substitute this expression into the remaining equations. This yields a system of equations with one fewer equation and unknown.

3. Linear equation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_equation

   Conversely, every line is the set of all solutions of a linear equation. The phrase "linear equation" takes its origin in this correspondence between lines and equations: a linear equation in two variables is an equation whose solutions form a line. If b ≠ 0, the line is the graph of the function of x that has been defined in the preceding ...

4. Equation solving - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation_solving

   Solving an equation symbolically means that expressions can be used for representing the solutions. For example, the equation x + y = 2x – 1 is solved for the unknown x by the expression x = y + 1, because substituting y + 1 for x in the equation results in (y + 1) + y = 2(y + 1) – 1, a true statement.

5. Equation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation

   A linear Diophantine equation is an equation between two sums of monomials of degree zero or one. An example of linear Diophantine equation is ax + by = c where a, b, and c are constants. An exponential Diophantine equation is one for which exponents of the terms of the equation can be unknowns.

6. Cramer's rule - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cramer's_rule

   In linear algebra, Cramer's rule is an explicit formula for the solution of a system of linear equations with as many equations as unknowns, valid whenever the system has a unique solution. It expresses the solution in terms of the determinants of the (square) coefficient matrix and of matrices obtained from it by replacing one column by the ...

7. Underdetermined system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underdetermined_system

   It is inconsistent if and only if 0 = 1 is a linear combination (with polynomial coefficients) of the equations (this is Hilbert's Nullstellensatz). If an underdetermined system of t equations in n variables ( t < n ) has solutions, then the set of all complex solutions is an algebraic set of dimension at least n - t .
