Marks: +1, -0
Using matrices, solve the following system of equations:
2x – 3y + 5 = 11
3x + 2y – 4z = -5
x + y – 2z= -3
Solution:
2x – 3y + 5 = 11
3x + 2y – 4z = -5
x + y – 2z= -3
System of equations can be written as AX = B
Where, A = [2−3532−411−2]
X = [xyz] , B = [11−5−3]
A = [2−3532−411−2]
|A| = 2(- 4 + 4) + 3 ( - 6 + 4) + 5 (3 - 2)
|A| = - 6 + 5 = - 1 ≠ 0
∴ A−1 exists and system of equations has a unique solution
A−1 = 1|A| (adj A)
adj A = [0−122−9231−513]
A−1 = 1|A|[0−122−9231−513]
= [01−2−29−23−15−13]
X = A−1B = [01−2−29−23−15−13] [11−5−3]
X = [−5+6−22−45+69−11−25+39] = [123]
So x = 1 , y = 2 , z = 3
