Abstract

This note is a comment on reference [1] and a generalization of the method there presented. We consider a system of m linear equations in n unknowns x_1, x_2,...x_n (1) Σ^(n)_(j=1) a_(ij)x_j = c_i i=1, 2,...m, a_(ij), c_i real or A∙x=c in matrix notation. We distinguish three cases: (I) There is no finite vector x satisfying (1) (inconsistent case); (II) There is a unique vector x satisfying (1); (III) There are an infinity of vectors x satisfying (1), such that their endpoints lie on some line, plane, or higher-dimensional linear manifold.
