Write a matrix equation equivalent to the system of equations.
\n" ); document.write( "9x + 9y = -9
\n" ); document.write( "5x - 2y = 6
\n" ); document.write( "we write the matrix equation as (A)*(X)=(C)..where A is the (2,2)matrix of coefficients namely,9,9,5 and -2 here.X is the (2,1) matrix of unknowns x and y and C is the constants (2,1)matrix on the right side of the eqn NAMELY -9 AND 6.you will find that from the rule for equality of matrices,the above matrix eqn.in effect means the same as that of the given equations.
\n" ); document.write( "(\"matrix%282%2C2%2C9%2C9%2C5%2C-2%29\")*(\"matrix%282%2C1%2Cx%2Cy%29\")=(\"matrix%282%2C1%2C-9%2C6%29\")\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Cramer's rule.
\n" ); document.write( "6x + 4y = -4
\n" ); document.write( "y = -3x - 7
\n" ); document.write( "GIVING BELOW EXAMPE OF CRAMERS RULE.
\n" ); document.write( "My question is.... I was wondering how to do the cramer rule on a 3x3. I have found a bunch of examples and stuff, but I want to know how in the world do you find the determinants of the D, Dx, Dy.and Dz. If you could just tell me how, that would be great.

\n" ); document.write( "SEE THE FOLLOWING AND COME BACK IF YOU HAVE DIFFICULTY.HERE C,CX,CY,CZ REFER TO YOUR D,DX,DY,DZ...JUST A DIFFERENCE IN NOMENCLATURE.I SHOWED IN DETAIL A 2X2 DETERMINANT AND THEN IN BRIEF A 3X3 DETERMINANT
\n" ); document.write( "2x+y=4
\n" ); document.write( "3x-y=6
\n" ); document.write( "make a deteminant with coefficients of x (2,3)and y(1,-1) in the 2 eqns.call it C.(Actually for a determinant as you know ,the numbers are contained in vertical bars at either end like |xx|,but in the following the bars are omitted due to difficulty in depiction.you may assume the bars are present)
\n" ); document.write( "C=matrix(2,2,2,1,3,-1)=2*(-1)-(1*3)=-5
\n" ); document.write( "..now use the constants (4,6)to replace coefficients of x(2,3) in the above determinant C...call it CX..
\n" ); document.write( "CX=matrix(2,2,4,1,6,-1)=4*(-1)-1*6=-4-6=-10
\n" ); document.write( "..now use the constants (4,6)to replace coefficients of y(1,-1) in the above determinant C...call it CY..
\n" ); document.write( "CY=matrix(2,2,2,4,3,6)=2*6-3*4=12=12=0
\n" ); document.write( "..now cramers rule says that
\n" ); document.write( "(x/CX)=(y/CY)=(1/C)..so we get
\n" ); document.write( "x/(-10)=y/0=1/-5
\n" ); document.write( "x=-10/-5=10/5=2
\n" ); document.write( "y=0/-5=0
\n" ); document.write( "************************************
\n" ); document.write( "so using the above method you can do the next problem ..here due to presence of 3 variables you will get 3rd.order determinants...4 in all...namely C,CX,CY and CZ,the last formula also extends to include z ,
\n" ); document.write( "(x/CX)=(y/CY)=(z/CZ)=(1/C)..
\n" ); document.write( "but the procedure is same ..
\n" ); document.write( "2x+3y+ z= 5
\n" ); document.write( "x+y-2z= -2
\n" ); document.write( "-3x +z=-7 ...
\n" ); document.write( "...just to give you the idea
\n" ); document.write( "C=matrix(3,3,2,3,1,1,1,-2,-3,0,1)..and
\n" ); document.write( "CZ=matrix(3,3,2,3,5,1,1,-2,-3,0,7)..etc..hope you can work out the rest\r
