If the two lines represented by a pair of linear equations intersect at a single point, the pair has
Aa unique solution
Bno solution
Cinfinitely many solutions
Dexactly two solutions
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. a unique solution
1. The solution of a pair of linear equations is the point(s) common to both lines.
2. Two lines that intersect meet at exactly one point, giving **a unique solution**.
3. Such a pair is consistent.
