Question

Write each system of linear equations as an augmented matrix: 

Part (a): 2x+4y=-53x-2y=2

Part (b): 3x-2y-z=-2-2x+y=55x+4y+z=-1

Step-by-Step Solution

Verified
Answer

Part (a): The augmented matrix is 24-53-22.

Part (b): The augmented matrix is 3-2-1-2-2105541-1.

1Part (a) Step 1. Given information and write in augmented matrix.

Consider the given system of equations,

2x+4y=-53x-2y=2

Here all the equations are in the standard form.

Write the augmented matrix,

24-53-22

2Part (b) Step 1. Given information and write in augmented matrix.

Consider the given system of equations,

3x-2y-z=-2-2x+y=55x+4y+z=-1

Here all the equations are in the standard form.

Write the augmented matrix,

3-2-1-2-2105541-1
