Lab#2 - Gaussian Elimination Method

The document describes using Gaussian elimination to solve a system of 4 linear equations with 4 unknowns (w, x, y, z). It provides the coefficient matrix A and constant vector b, and shows the row reduction steps to put the matrix in upper triangular form. The reduced matrix is then back substituted to solve for the unknowns w = -1, x = 0, y = 1, z = 2.
