| Question 891216:  additional assistance requested in understanding how to get a solution
 solve the system linear equations using the Gauss-Jordam method
 3x + 3y + z  = 22
 x +      z  =  6
 4y + 3z =  8
 
 2x + 5y - 2z = 14
 5x - 6y + 2z =  0
 4x -  y + 3z = -7
 
 x - 2y = 8
 3x+ 4y = 4
 
 3x + 2y =  14
 x - 4y = -14
 
 7x + 5y =  32
 -3x +  y = 20

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Against my better judgement, I will do two for you. 3x + 3y + z = 22
 x + z = 6
 4y + 3z = 8
 3,3,1,22
 1,0,1,6
 0,4,3,8
 divide row 1 by 3/1
 1,1,1/3,22/3
 1,0,1,6
 0,4,3,8
 add  down (-1/1) *row 1 to row 2
 1,1,1/3,22/3
 0,-1,2/3,-4/3
 0,4,3,8
 add  down (0/1) *row 1 to row 3
 1,1,1/3,22/3
 0,-1,2/3,-4/3
 0,4,3,8
 divide row 2 by -1/1
 1,1,1/3,22/3
 0,1,2/-3,-4/-3
 0,4,3,8
 add  down (-4/1) *row 2 to row 3
 1,1,1/3,22/3
 0,1,2/-3,4/3
 0,0,-17/-3,8/3
 divide row 3 by 17/3
 1,1,1/3,22/3
 0,1,2/-3,4/3
 0,0,1,24/51
 We now have the value for the last variable.
 We will work our way up and get the other solutions.
 add up  (-2/-3) *row 3 to row 2
 1,1,1/3,22/3
 0,1,0,-252/-153
 0,0,1,8/17
 add up  (-1/3) *row 3 to row 1
 1,1,0,1098/153
 0,1,0,28/17
 0,0,1,8/17
 add up  (-1/1) *row 2 to row 1
 1,0,0,1598/289
 0,1,0,28/17
 0,0,1,8/17
 final
 1,0,0,94/17 = 5.52941176
 0,1,0,28/17 = 1.64705882
 0,0,1,8/17 = 0.47058824
 "94/17","28/17","8/17"
 
 next one
 2x + 5y - 2z = 14
 5x - 6y + 2z = 0
 4x - y + 3z = -7
 2,5,-2,14
 5,-6,2,0
 4,-1,3,-7
 divide row 1 by 2/1
 1,5/2,-1,7
 5,-6,2,0
 4,-1,3,-7
 add  down (-5/1) *row 1 to row 2
 1,5/2,-1,7
 0,-37/2,7,-35
 4,-1,3,-7
 add  down (-4/1) *row 1 to row 3
 1,5/2,-1,7
 0,-37/2,7,-35
 0,-11,7,-35
 divide row 2 by -37/2
 1,5/2,-1,7
 0,1,14/-37,-70/-37
 0,-11,7,-35
 add  down (11/1) *row 2 to row 3
 1,5/2,-1,7
 0,1,14/-37,70/37
 0,0,-105/-37,-525/37
 divide row 3 by 105/37
 1,5/2,-1,7
 0,1,14/-37,70/37
 0,0,1,-5
 We now have the value for the last variable.
 We will work our way up and get the other solutions.
 add up  (-14/-37) *row 3 to row 2
 1,5/2,-1,7
 0,1,0,0
 0,0,1,-5
 add up  (1/1) *row 3 to row 1
 1,5/2,0,2
 0,1,0,0
 0,0,1,-5
 add up  (-5/2) *row 2 to row 1
 1,0,0,2
 0,1,0,0
 0,0,1,-5
 final
 1,0,0,2
 0,1,0,0
 0,0,1,-5
 (2,0,-5)
