I was trying to find the values of two unknown variables using two equations.When I simplified both the equations, both of them were the same. What should be the value of the variables in such a case?

0But secret, apparently. You cannot expect any useful help for people you refuse to show the problem to. If it's a matter of national security, doesn't your agency have an internal department for solving classified equations? – 2011-10-22

In many cases, you can choose one variable as free parameter and then calculate the value of the other variable using that parameter which gives infinitely many solutions.

0Yes, this is to be expected to happen often when you have actually just one equation for two variables. – 2011-10-14
