SOLUTION: Solve the system using Cramer's rule, if possible. x - 2y + 3z = 11 4x + y - z = 4 2x - y + 3z = 10 Please help by showing steps. I am unsure of how to set this up

Question 965592: Solve the system using Cramer's rule, if possible.
x - 2y + 3z = 11
4x + y - z = 4
2x - y + 3z = 10
Please help by showing steps. I am unsure of how to set this up. Thank yoU!

First, write down the augmented matrix. Then, you can use Cramer's Rule to determine the values of the entries

and

. Recall that Cramer's Rule states that the value of

is equal to the determinant of

divided by the determinant of

(where

is the matrix formed from the coefficient matrix

, but with the

-th column replaced by the vector

).
In this case, we have that

and

Thus, it's simple calculation from here.
