MATH Exercise-1

This document contains an exercise on linear systems. It begins by asking the student to determine whether certain equations are linear or not. It then asks the student to determine the number of solutions for given equations. The next section asks the student to solve three linear systems using any method. It concludes by asking the student to determine values of t that would make a two-equation system consistent or inconsistent.
