    The given equation is ⇒⇒⇒ 2y - 4x = 6

    ∴ 2y = 4x + 6 ⇒ divide all the equation over 2

    ∴ y = 2x + 3 and it can be written as ⇒⇒⇒ y - 2x = 3

    The last equation represents a straight line with a slope = 2 and y-intercept = 3

    To construct a system of equations with definitely many solutions and the equation (2y-4x=6) is one of the equations, the other equation must have the same slope and the same y-intercept.

    so, the general solution of the other equation is ⇒ a (y - 2x) = 3a

    Where a is constant and belongs to R (All real numbers)

    The system of equations which has definitely many solutions is consisting of Coincident lines.
