    1 Systems of Linear Equations - Matrices

    Recall: Common method to solve a linear system using Gaussian/Gauss-Jordan elimination:


    1) Construct a matrix (called the augmented matrix) corresponding to the system

    2) Using elementary row operations on matrices to reduce the augmented matrix to an upper triangu-
    lar matrix.
    3) Using back-substitution to solve the final system.
    Exercises:

    1. Which of the following are linear equations in x1 , x2 and x3 ?


    √ √
    (a) x1 + 5x2 − x3 = 1 (c) πx1 − 2x2 + 13 x3 = 71/3
    √ √
    − 32
    (b) x1−2 + x2 + 8x3 = 5 (d) x1 − 3x2 + 4√ x3 = 2
    5

    (b)
    2I1 − I2 + 3I3 + 4I4 = 9
