Solve the following system of equations using an augmented matrix and Gauss-Jordan Elimination. Be sure to show your work and explain what you are doing. Then, interpret your answer in terms of the original system.

Okay, here we have this:
Considering the provided equation, we are going to solve the system using an augmented matrix and Gauss-Jordan Elimination. So we obtain the following:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \begin{bmatrix}3x+2y-4z=4 \\ x-3y-10z=8 \\ -5x-4y+12z=-2\end{bmatrix} \\ \begin{bmatrix}\frac{4-2y+4z}{3}-3y-10z=8 \\ -5\cdot\frac{4-2y+4z}{3}-4y+12z=-2\end{bmatrix} \\ \begin{bmatrix}\frac{-11y-26z+4}{3}=8 \\ \frac{-2y+16z-20}{3}=-2\end{bmatrix} \\ \begin{bmatrix}\frac{-2\left(-\frac{26z+20}{11}\right)+16z-20}{3}=-2\end{bmatrix} \\ \begin{bmatrix}\frac{4\left(19z-15\right)}{11}=-2\end{bmatrix} \\ y=-\frac{26\cdot\frac{1}{2}+20}{11} \\ y=-3 \\ x=\frac{4-2\left(-3\right)+4\cdot\frac{1}{2}}{3} \\ x=4 \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]Finally we obtain that the solution to the system is:
[tex]x=4,\: z=\frac{1}{2},\: y=-3[/tex]
