| Question 1176910:  could you help me tell me where my mistake is or if it's ok.
 Consider the matrix:
 -7	4	-6	4	-7
 4	2	-3	0	-5
 -3	9	10	-3	-4
 -9	2	-5	-7	-6
 (a) On the matrix above, perform the row operation −17R3+R1→R1. The new matrix is:
 44     -149     -176    55      61
 4        2       -3     0       -5
 -3       9       10     -3      -4
 -9       2       -5     -7      -6
 (b) On the original matrix, perform the row operation −7R3→R3. The new matrix is:
 -7	4	-6	4	-7
 4	2	-3	0	-5
 21     -63      -70    21       28
 -9	2	-5	-7	-6
 (c) On the original matrix, perform the row operation R1↔R2. The new matrix is:
 4	2	-3	0	-5
 -7	4	-6	4	-7
 -3	9	10	-3	-4
 -9	2	-5	-7	-6

 By the way,  in  Linear  Algebra such transformations on matrices are called
 
 E L E M E N T A R Y      T R A N S F O R M A T I O N S.
