Use matricies to solve the system of equations (if possible). Use Gauss-Jordan elimination.




Write the equations as,



Make the pivot in the first column by dividing the First row by 2,



Multiply the first row by 7,



Subtract the 1st row from the 3rd row and restore it,



Make the pivot in the second column by dividing the 2nd row by 2,



Multiply the 2nd row by -1/2,



subtract the 2nd row from the 1st row and restore it,



Multiply the 2nd row by -3/2



subtract the 2nd row from the 3rd row and restore it,



Make the pivot in the 3rd column by dividing the 3rd row by -45/4,



Multiply the 3rd row by 5/4,



subtract the 3rd row from the first row and restore it,



Multiply the 3rd row by -1/2,



subtract the 3rd row from the 2nd row and restore it,



So the solutions are x=8,y=10,z=6
