Equations that have more than one unknown can have an infinite number of solutions. For example, \(2x + y = 10\) could be solved by: \(x = 1\) and \(y = 8\) \(x = 2 ...
For example, the simultaneous equations \(3a + 2b = 17\) and \(4a - b = 30\) have no common coefficient as the coefficients of \(a\) are 3 and 4, and the coefficients of \(b\) are 2 and -1. Remember ...

During lockdowns, I researched viral internet maths sensations. Several of them are what a teenager might recognise as simultaneous equations. In the emoji example above, smiley faces = 4 and blown ...
