SOLUTION: solve the linear system of equations by crammers rule= -1/2x+3y+2z=-1 +3x+4y+5z=-2 -6x+3y-2z=-7

 

To solve using Cramer's rule:
 
There are 4 columns,
 
1. The column of x-coefficients 
 
2. The column of y-coefficients 
 
3. The column of z-coefficients  
 
4. The column of constants:     
 
There are four determinants:
 
1. The determinant  consists of just the three columns
of x, y, and z coefficients. in that order, but does not
contain the column of constants.
 
. 
 
It has value .  I'm assuming you know how to find the
value of a 3x3 determinant, for that's a subject all by itself.
If you don't know how, post again asking how. 
 
2. The determinant  is like the determinant 
except that the column of x-coefficients is replaced by the
column of constants.   does not contain the column 
of x-coefficients.
 
.
 
It has value .
 
3. The determinant  is like the determinant 
except that the column of y-coefficients is replaced by the
column of constants.   does not contain the column 
of y-coefficients.
 
.
 
It has value .
 
4. The determinant  is like the determinant 
except that the column of z-coefficients is replaced by the
column of constants.   does not contain the column 
of z-coefficients.
 
.
 
It has value .
 
Now the formulas for x, y and z are
