Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
given is a system of linear equations in 3 variables as
This can be represented in matrix form as
AX=B Or
So solution set
X would be
|A|=-1(-1)+4(0)+2(-1)=--1
Cofactors of A are
-1 0 -1
-2 -1 -3
0 1 2
So inverse of A is
1 2 0
0 1 -1
1 3 -2
Solution set would be
x=12
y=-3
z=-5
