Answer:
(6,3,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
x - y + 0z = 3
6x - 0y - 2z = 36
0x + 6y + 2z = 18
You have the following augmented matrix:
(1) 1 -1 0 3
(2) 6 0 -2 36
(3) 0 6 2 18
Let's (3) add to (2) and divide by 6
(1) 1 -1 0 3
(2) 1 1 0 9
(3) 0 6 2 18
Now, let's (2) add to (1) and divide by 2
(1) 1 0 0 6
(2) 1 1 0 9
(3) 0 6 2 18
Let's (3) ÷ 2
(1) 1 0 0 6
(2) 1 1 0 9
(3) 0 3 1 9
Let's (1) subtract from (2)
(1) 1 0 0 6
(2) 0 1 0 3
(3) 0 3 1 9
Finally, let's (2) multiply by 3 and subtract from (3)
(1) 1 0 0 6
(2) 0 1 0 3
(3) 0 0 1 0
Thus,
x = 6, y = 3 and z = 0
The answer is (6, 3, 0)
We have to verify the answer
6 - 3 = 3 ⇒⇒ 3 = 3
6*6 - 5*0 = 36 ⇒⇒ 36 = 36
6*3 + 2*0 = 18 ⇒⇒ 18 = 18
