Concept- linear equation in two variables.
First, we define what is equation
So, Equation is a statement which have a sign of equal ‘=’ between two mathematical expressions
Equations are of various types i.e. linear equation, quadratic equation, cubic equation.
Here, linear equation is that which is of degree 1 and linear equation is also of two types i.e. linear equation of one variable and two variable. Equation which has one variable is known as a linear equation of one variable and an equation which has two variables is known as a linear equation of two variables.              Quadratic equation is that which is of degree 2
Cubic equation is that which is of degree 3
Thus, linear equations have infinite solutions.
Hence, the correct answer is option 3.
