What Are Simultaneous Equations?
Simultaneous equations are a set of several equations with several unknowns. There are a set of values of these unknowns which solve all the equations at the same time. Here are set of simultaneous equations. They are both linear equations:Both equations are solved by the same values of x and y. x = 2 and y = 1 solve both equations.
Dictionary Definition
The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines simultaneous equation as "satisfied by the same values of the variables."Where Does the Word Simultaneous Come From?
Simultaneous equations are so called because the solution solves all the equations at the same time, or simultaneously.The Curriculum
