Q1
Representing the system as augmented matrix - [0 1 4 5] [1 3 5 2] [1 3 5 6]
1) Substituting Row 2 from Row 1 R2 - R1 = R2 [0 1 4 5] [1 2 1 -3] [3 7 7
6] 2) Substituting R2 with 3R1 R3 - 3R1 = R3 [0 1 4 5] [1 2 1 -3] [3 4 -5 -9]
3) Substituting 4R2 with R3 R3 - 4R2 = R3 [0 1 4 5] [1 2 1 -3] [3 0 -9 3] 4)
Dividing - 1/9R3 [0 1 4 5] [1 2 1 -3] [3 0 1 -1] 5) R2 - 4R3 = R2 [0 1 4 5] [1 2 -3
1] [3 0 1 -1] 6) R2 - R1 = R2 [0 1 4 5] [1 1 -7 6] [3 0 1 -1] 7) R3 - 3R2 = R3 [0
1 4 5] [1 1 7 6] [0 -3 22 -19] 8) -1/3 multiply by R3 [0 1 4 5] [1 1 -7 6] [0 1 -22/3
19/3] 9) R3 - R2 = R3 [0 1 4 5] [1 1 -7 6] [0 0 5/3 1/3]
x2 + 4x3 = 5 x1 + x2 + -7x3 = 6 5/3x3 = 1/3 x3 = 1/5 Substituting it
into Equation 2 Final solution ; 4, -3, 2 Verifying the results by substituting the
value in the original system
x2 + 4X3 = 5 -3 + 4(2) = 5 -3 + 8 = 5 5 = 5 TRUE
x1 + 3x2 + 5x3 = 2 5 = 2 - FALSE
3x1 + 7x2 + 7x3 = 6 5 = 6 FALSE
Representing the system as augmented matrix - [1 -3 4 4] [3 -7 7 8] [4 6 -1 7]
R2 - 3R1 = R2 [1 -3 4 4] [0 2 -5 -4] [4 6 -1 7]
R3 - 4R1 = R3 [1 -3 4 4] [0 2 -5 -4] [0 18 -17 -9]
R3 - 9R2 = R3 [1 -3 4 4] [0 2 -5 -4] [0 0 8 29/8]
1/8R3 = R3 [1 -3 4 4] [0 2 -5 -4] [0 0 1 29/8]
R2 + 5R3 = R2 [1 -3 4 4] [0 2 0 1/8] [0 0 1 29/8]
R1 - 4R3 = R1 [1 -3 0 -6] [0 2 0 1/8] [0 0 1 29/8]
R1 = 3R2 = R1 [1 0 0 -17/2] [0 2 0 1/8] [0 0 1 29/8]
SIMPLIFYING WE HAVE ; x3 = 74 no solution to the system of equation
C) The Augmented matrix [1 3 0 5] [1 1 5 2] [0 1 1 0]
R2 = R2 - R1 R3 = R3 - 0R1
[1 -3 0 5 ] [0 4 5 -3] [0 1 1 0]
Multiply R2 by 1/4 R2 = (1/4) R2 Then R3 - R2 = R3 Multiplying R3 by
-4 [1 -3 0 5] [0 1 5/4 -3] [0 0 1 -3] R1 = 3R3 = R1 Then R2 - 5/4 R3 R1 = 3R2
[1 0 0 -4] [0 1 0 0] [0 0 1 -3] Final Solution -4, 0, -3 Substituting the values in
the original system - 4 -3(0) = 5 -4 + 0 + 5(-3) = 2 0 + (-3) = 0 The solution
is verified

 Q2 Writing the system as - x1 + 4x2 + 2x3 = 2 3x2 + 5x3 = 4 2x1 + 8x2
+ 4x3 = 3
[1 4 2 2] [0 3 5 4] [2 8 4 3]
R3 -2R1 = R3 [1 4 2 2] [0 3 5 4] [0 0 0 -1]
0 = -1 The system has no solution
Q3 Subtracting 2 times the first equation from the second equation
0x - 2y - 6z = 2 0x + 1y + 5z = 2 -2x - 4y - 3z = 9
Usinf 3rd equation to eliminate x
0x - 2y -6z = 2 0x + 1y +5z = 2 0x - 12y - 11z = 27
Multiplying the equation by -1/2 0x + 1y + 3z = -1 0x + 1y + 5z = 2 0x -
12y - 11z = 27
y + 5x = 2 y = 2- 5z
the third equation
-12y - 11z = 27 0 = 27 Equation not satisfied The solution as a vector is an
empty set.
Q5 A) TRUE A is a vector, x and b are column vectors b) TRUE Because
Augmented matrix has a pivot position in every row c) TRUE It results in a
unique solution d) TRUE
