Algebra.Com's Answer #704901 by greenestamps(13200)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! The matrix for the given equations is \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "We first want to get \"1 0 0\" in column 1. It is already nearly the way we want it; we just need to get a 0 in row 3. To do that, we can replace row 3 with (row 3 - row 1). \n" ); document.write( "R3 <-- R3-R1: 1-1=0; 0-0=0; 1-(-1)=2; 7-(-3)=10: \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "Next we can make smaller numbers in the matrix by dividing row 3 by 2: \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "After this, the second column is already the way we want it. So now we use row 3 to get \"0 0 1\" in column 3. \n" ); document.write( "R1 <-- R1+R3: 1+0=1; 0+0=0; 1+(-1)=0; -3+5=2 \n" ); document.write( "R2 <-- R2-R3: 0-0=0; 1-0=1; 1-1=0; 9-5=4 \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "The solution to the system of equations is x=2, y=4, z=5. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
