SOLUTION: The system of equations may have a unique solution, an infinite number of solutions, or no solution. Use matrices to find the general solution of the system, if a solution exists.
Question 1196103: The system of equations may have a unique solution, an infinite number of solutions, or no solution. Use matrices to find the general solution of the system, if a solution exists. (If there is no solution, enter NO SOLUTION. If there are infinitely many solutions, express your answers in terms of z as in Example 3.)
To make the 2 on row 2 column 1 become 0,
-2R1+3R2->R2
To make the -2 on row 1 column 2 become 0,
-2R2+5R1->R1
To make the leading coefficients become 1,
(1/15)R1->R1
(-1/5)R2->R2
