Math Problem Statement

solve the system 2x-4y+5z=7, -3x-2y+2z=10,-2x+3y-2z=14

Solution

We are solving the system of linear equations:

  1. 2x4y+5z=72x - 4y + 5z = 7
  2. 3x2y+2z=10-3x - 2y + 2z = 10
  3. 2x+3y2z=14-2x + 3y - 2z = 14

Solution

We will use the matrix method to find the solution, representing the system in the form Ax=bA\mathbf{x} = \mathbf{b}, where:

2 & -4 & 5 \\ -3 & -2 & 2 \\ -2 & 3 & -2 \end{bmatrix}, \quad \mathbf{x} = \begin{bmatrix} x \\ y \\ z \end{bmatrix}, \quad \mathbf{b} = \begin{bmatrix} 7 \\ 10 \\ 14 \end{bmatrix}.$$ To solve, $$\mathbf{x} = A^{-1}\mathbf{b}$$. #### Step 1: Compute $$A^{-1}$$ The inverse of $$A$$ is computed as $$A^{-1} = \frac{1}{\det(A)} \text{adj}(A)$$, where $$\det(A)$$ is the determinant of $$A$$, and $$\text{adj}(A)$$ is the adjugate matrix. #### Step 2: Solve for $$\mathbf{x}$$ Perform $$A^{-1} \mathbf{b}$$ to find the solution. I'll compute the values explicitly. numpy as np # Define the coefficient matrix A and the constant vector b A = np.array([[2, -4, 5], [-3, -2, 2], [-2, 3, -2]]) b = np.array([7, 10, 14]) # Solve the system using matrix inversion solution = np.linalg.solve(A, b) solutionThe solution to the system of equations is: $$x = -2.90, \quad y = 9.52, \quad z = 10.17$$ ### Final Answer: - $$x \approx -2.90$$ - $$y \approx 9.52$$ - $$z \approx 10.17$$ Would you like a detailed explanation of the steps, or do you have any questions? --- ### Related Questions: 1.
