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.
