[QUOTE="haruspex, post: 4752907, member: 334404"] Yes. Instead of one solution there will be a subspace of solutions. Yes. If the det is zero then it means the LHS of one or more equations can be constructed as a linear combination of the others. If the same linear combination also generates the corresponding values on the RHS then those equations are redundant. If throwing them away means you now have fewer equations than variables the system is underspecified. But if the linear combination does not generate the corresponding values on the RHS then the equations conflict, so no solutions. [/QUOTE]
