Solution set:

x1 = 5
x2 = 2
x3 = -4



Your matrix

№	X1	X2	X3	b
1	5	7	4	23
2	4	3	8	-6
3	5	6	5	17

Make the pivot in the 1st column by dividing the 1st row by 5

№	X1	X2	X3	b
1	1	7/5	4/5	23/5
2	4	3	8	-6
3	5	6	5	17

Multiply the 1st row by 4

№	X1	X2	X3	b
1	4	28/5	16/5	92/5
2	4	3	8	-6
3	5	6	5	17

Subtract the 1st row from the 2nd row and restore it

№	X1	X2	X3	b
1	1	7/5	4/5	23/5
2	0	-13/5	24/5	-122/5
3	5	6	5	17

Multiply the 1st row by 5

№	X1	X2	X3	b
1	5	7	4	23
2	0	-13/5	24/5	-122/5
3	5	6	5	17

Subtract the 1st row from the 3rd row and restore it

№	X1	X2	X3	b
1	1	7/5	4/5	23/5
2	0	-13/5	24/5	-122/5
3	0	-1	1	-6

Find the pivot in the 2nd column (inversing the sign in the whole row) and swap the 3rd and the 2nd rows

№	X1	X2	X3	b
1	1	7/5	4/5	23/5
2	0	1	-1	6
3	0	-13/5	24/5	-122/5

Multiply the 2nd row by 7/5

№	X1	X2	X3	b
1	1	7/5	4/5	23/5
2	0	7/5	-7/5	42/5
3	0	-13/5	24/5	-122/5

Subtract the 2nd row from the 1st row and restore it

№	X1	X2	X3	b
1	1	0	11/5	-19/5
2	0	1	-1	6
3	0	-13/5	24/5	-122/5

Multiply the 2nd row by -13/5

№	X1	X2	X3	b
1	1	0	11/5	-19/5
2	0	-13/5	13/5	-78/5
3	0	-13/5	24/5	-122/5

Subtract the 2nd row from the 3rd row and restore it

№	X1	X2	X3	b
1	1	0	11/5	-19/5
2	0	1	-1	6
3	0	0	11/5	-44/5

Make the pivot in the 3rd column by dividing the 3rd row by 11/5

№	X1	X2	X3	b
1	1	0	11/5	-19/5
2	0	1	-1	6
3	0	0	1	-4

Multiply the 3rd row by 11/5

№	X1	X2	X3	b
1	1	0	11/5	-19/5
2	0	1	-1	6
3	0	0	11/5	-44/5

Subtract the 3rd row from the 1st row and restore it

№	X1	X2	X3	b
1	1	0	0	5
2	0	1	-1	6
3	0	0	1	-4

Multiply the 3rd row by -1

№	X1	X2	X3	b
1	1	0	0	5
2	0	1	-1	6
3	0	0	-1	4

Subtract the 3rd row from the 2nd row and restore it

№	X1	X2	X3	b
1	1	0	0	5
2	0	1	0	2
3	0	0	1	-4
