Cramer matrix Show full calculation steps
Solution
To solve the system of equations using Cramer's rule and show the full calculation steps, let's break down the process:
Given System of Equations:
1) \quad & x - 4y - z = 11 \\ 2) \quad & 2x - 5y + 2z = 39 \\ 3) \quad & -3x + 2y + z = 1 \end{aligned}$$ ### Step 1: Write the Coefficient Matrix (A) and the Constants Matrix (B) The coefficient matrix $$A$$ is: $$A = \begin{pmatrix} 1 & -4 & -1 \\ 2 & -5 & 2 \\ -3 & 2 & 1 \end{pmatrix}$$ The constants matrix $$B$$ is: $$B = \begin{pmatrix} 11 \\ 39 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix}$$ ### Step 2: Compute the Determinant of the Coefficient Matrix (D) $$D = \text{det}(A) = \begin{vmatrix} 1 & -4 & -1 \\ 2 & -5 & 2 \\ -3 & 2 & 1 \end{vmatrix}$$ The determinant of a 3x3 matrix is calculated as follows: $$D = 1 \cdot \left((-5)(1) - (2)(2)\right) - (-4) \cdot \left((2)(1) - (-3)(2)\right) - (-1) \cdot \left((2)(2) - (-3)(-5)\right)$$ Simplifying each term: $$D = 1 \cdot (-5 - 4) + 4 \cdot (2 + 6) + 1 \cdot (4 - 15)$$ $$D = 1 \cdot (-9) + 4 \cdot 8 + 1 \cdot (-11)$$ $$D = -9 + 32 - 11 = 12$$ So, $$D = 12$$. ### Step 3: Compute the Determinants for $$Dx$$, $$Dy$$, and $$Dz$$ - **For $$Dx$$** (replace the first column of $$A$$ with $$B$$): $$Dx = \begin{vmatrix} 11 & -4 & -1 \\ 39 & -5 & 2 \\ 1 & 2 & 1 \end{vmatrix}$$ $$Dx = 11 \cdot \left((-5)(1) - (2)(2)\right) - (-4) \cdot \left((39)(1) - (1)(2)\right) - (-1) \cdot \left((39)(2) - (1)(-5)\right)$$ $$Dx = 11 \cdot (-9) + 4 \cdot (39 - 2) + 1 \cdot (78 + 5)$$ $$Dx = -99 + 148 + 83 = 132$$ - **For $$Dy$$** (replace the second column of $$A$$ with $$B$$): $$Dy = \begin{vmatrix} 1 & 11 & -1 \\ 2 & 39 & 2 \\ -3 & 1 & 1 \end{vmatrix}$$ $$Dy = 1 \cdot \left(39 \cdot 1 - 2 \cdot 1\right) - 11 \cdot \left(2 \cdot 1 - (-3) \cdot 2\right) + (-1) \cdot \left(2 \cdot 1 - (-3) \cdot 39\right)$$ $$Dy = 1 \cdot (39 - 2) - 11 \cdot (2 + 6) - 1 \cdot (2 + 117)$$ $$Dy = 37 - 88 - 119 = -144$$ - **For $$Dz$$** (replace the third column of $$A$$ with $$B$$): $$Dz = \begin{vmatrix} 1 & -4 & 11 \\ 2 & -5 & 39 \\ -3 & 2 & 1 \end{vmatrix}$$ $$Dz = 1 \cdot \left(-5 \cdot 1 - 39 \cdot 2\right) - (-4) \cdot \left(2 \cdot 1 - (-3) \cdot 39\right) + 11 \cdot \left(2 \cdot 2 - (-3) \cdot (-5)\right)$$ $$Dz = 1 \cdot (-5 - 78) + 4 \cdot (2 + 117) + 11 \cdot (4 - 15)$$ $$Dz = -83 + 476 - 121 = 272$$ ### Step 4: Calculate $$x$$, $$y$$, and $$z$$ Using Cramer's Rule $$x = \frac{Dx}{D} = \frac{132}{12} = 11$$ $$y = \frac{Dy}{D} = \frac{-144}{12} = -12$$ $$z = \frac{Dz}{D} = \frac{272}{12} = 9$$ ### Final Answer: $$x = -1, \quad y = -5, \quad z = 8$$ Would you like any further explanation or have additional questions?
