# Definition
Linear equations an equations whose unknown variables ($x$) are linear and are multiplied by some constant ($a_{n}$) and equal some solution value $(b_{n})$. An equation describes this to $x_{n}$ is denoted as
$
a_{1}x_{1} + a_{2}x_{2} \dots a_{n}x_{n}=b
$
A linear equation can be some $nth$ number of variable long. **Multiple linear equations** are called a **system of linear equations** with $m$ linear equation and $n$ variables written as
$
\begin{align*}
a_{1}x_{1} + a_{2}x_{2} \dots a_{n}x_{n} &=b_{1} \\
a_{21}x_{1} + a_{22}x_{2} \dots a_{2n}x_{n}&=b_{2} \\
\vdots\\
a_{m1}x_{1} + a_{m2}x_{2} \dots a_{mn}x_{n}&=b_{m}
\end{align*}
