Skoda,

Just to clear one thing up:

it's not that you need n equations to be able to solve a set of equations
with n variables , it's that you need n INDEPENDENT equations.  Graphical=
ly
that means the equations give n DIFFERENT lines (or curves), all
intersecting at one (or more) common point(s).

x=3D y + 1
2x =3D 2y + 2

are NOT 2 independent equations.
