-x+3y=6
3x-9y=9
---
copy and paste the above standard form linear equations in to this (matrix method) solver:

---
answer:
This linear system is singular. It has no solution
---
check by elimination method:
---
-x + 3y = 6
3x - 9y = 9
---
-3x + 9y = 18
3x - 9y = 9
---
add the system:
0 = 27
answer:
This linear system is singular. It has no solution.
NOTE: elimination method agrees with matrix method
---
NOTE TO STUDENT:
solving the system manually with matrices:
---
A * X = B
---
where A:
[a b] = [-1 +3]
[c d] = [+3 -9]
where X:
[x]
[y]
where B:
[6]
[9]
---
[-1 +3][x] = [6]
[+3 -9][y] = [9]
---
solve for X:
X = (A-inverse) * B
---
where A-inverse:
[-9 -3] * 1/dA
[-3 -1]
---
NOTE:
let dA stand for "the determinant of matrix A"
the determinant of A is a scalar (a real number) derived from matrix A ...
---
dA = ad - bc
dA = (-1*-9) - (3*3)
dA = 9 - 9
dA = 0
---
1/dA = 1/0
but division by zero is undefined
---
recall that A-inverse is:
[-9 -3] * 1/dA
[-3 -1]
---
so A-inverse is undefined
---
recall that:
X = (A-inverse) * B
---
so the solution vector X is undefined !!!
---
answer:
Therefore, this linear system is singular. It has no solution.
NOTE: matrix-method solver agrees with elimination method, and both agree with the manual solution by matrices.
