Step 1
Reduce the matrix to find the answer to a set of equations [AB] where A is the matrix formed by the coefficients of LHS of the equations and B is the matrix formed by the RHS of the equations.
Step 2
Find the matrix [AB] from the given system of equations and row reduce it.
[15213421]R2R23R1
[152101144]R2R211
[152101411411]R1R1+5R2
[1021191101411411]
Step 3
Create the equation using the matrix above.
x+211z=911
y411z=411
Step 4
Let z=t. Find the value of x and y.
x+211(t)=911
x=9112t11
y411(t)=411
y=411+4t11
Step 5
Answer: For random z=t the solution set will be,
{(9112t11,411+4t11),t }
