Justification:
The given equations are 3x + y - 1 = 0 and 6x + 2y - 2 = 0.
So,
Equation I = (3x + y = 1) and
Equation II = (6x + 2y = 2)
= { 2(3x + y) = 2}
= 3x + y = 2/2
= 3x + y = 1
So, The given equations are 3x + y = 1 and 3x + y = 1.
Thus, there is one equation in two variables.
So, the given equations have an infinite number of solutions.
