Answer 5

Take all the terms to the LHS and name the constants in equation 1 as a1, b1, c1 and that in second equation as a2, b2, c2.
If a1/a2 not equal to b1/b2 --- One unique solution
If a1/a2 = b1/b2 = c1/c2 --- Infinite solutions
If a1/a2 = b1/b2 not equal to c1/c2 --- No solution

Answer 6

what does LHS mean?
