The above system of equations A.X = B are said to be homogeneous if the constant
matrix B is null matrix, otherwise the above system of equations A. X = B are said to be
non homogeneous
Consistency and inconsistency of the system of equations: The system of equations
A.X = B are said to be consistent if the system possesses one or more solutions,
otherwise, the system is said to be inconsistent
Note: (1) Any system of equations A.X = B is consistent if (i) it possesses unique
solution
or(ii) it possesses infinite number
of solutions
(2) Any system of equations A.X = B is inconsistent if it has no solution
(3) The system of equations A.X =O is always consistent because zero (or trivial)
solution is one of its solutions
i.e. the homogeneous system of equations always possesses solution

The linear system of equations A. X = B can be solved by using following methods
(1) Matrix inversion method
(2) Cramer’s rule or Method of determinants
(3) Gauss elimination method
(4) Rank method
(5) LU decomposition method
You have already studied first two methods in your intermediate syllabus now we have to
study rest of the methods in this unit
