2. Solve the system of equations by Gauss Elimination method 3x+4y+5=18; 2x-y+8=13; 5x-2y+7z=20. upper triangular matrix must be include

To solve the system of equations using the Gauss Elimination method, we first need to represent the system in a standard form (Ax = b) and then perform row operations to convert the augmented matrix into an upper triangular matrix. Finally, we'll solve for the variables using back substitution.

### Given System of Equations:
1. \( 3x + 4y + 5z = 18 \)
2. \( 2x - y + 8z = 13 \)
3. \( 5x - 2y + 7z = 20 \)

### Step 1: Write the Augmented Matrix

The augmented matrix \([A|b]\) for the system is:

\[
\begin{pmatrix}
3 & 4 & 5 & | & 18 \\
2 & -1 & 8 & | & 13 \\
5 & -2 & 7 & | & 20
\end{pmatrix}
\]

### Step 2: Apply Gaussian Elimination to Obtain an Upper Triangular Matrix

**Row 1 (R1):**  
\[
\text{R1} = \begin{pmatrix} 3 & 4 & 5 & | & 18 \end{pmatrix}
\]

**Row 2 (R2):**  
To eliminate the x-term from R2, we perform:
\[
\text{R2} \rightarrow \text{R2} - \frac{2}{3} \text{R1}
\]
\[
\text{R2} = \begin{pmatrix} 2 & -1 & 8 & | & 13 \end{pmatrix} - \frac{2}{3} \times \begin{pmatrix} 3 & 4 & 5 & | & 18 \end{pmatrix}
\]
\[
\text{R2} = \begin{pmatrix} 0 & -\frac{11}{3} & \frac{14}{3} & | & 1 \end{pmatrix}
\]

**Row 3 (R3):**  
To eliminate the x-term from R3, we perform:
\[
\text{R3} \rightarrow \text{R3} - \frac{5}{3} \text{R1}
\]
\[
\text{R3} = \begin{pmatrix} 5 & -2 & 7 & | & 20 \end{pmatrix} - \frac{5}{3} \times \begin{pmatrix} 3 & 4 & 5 & | & 18 \end{pmatrix}
\]
\[
\text{R3} = \begin{pmatrix} 0 & -\frac{22}{3} & \frac{4}{3} & | & -10 \end{pmatrix}
\]

### Step 3: Continue to Eliminate y-Term in R3

To further simplify, let's first convert R2 and R3 to integer coefficients for easier calculations:

**Multiply R2 by 3:**
\[
\text{R2} = \begin{pmatrix} 0 & -11 & 14 & | & 3 \end{pmatrix}
\]

**Multiply R3 by 3:**
\[
\text{R3} = \begin{pmatrix} 0 & -22 & 4 & | & -30 \end{pmatrix}
\]

Now, eliminate the y-term in R3 by subtracting \(\frac{22}{11}\) times R2 from R3:
\[
\text{R3} \rightarrow \text{R3} - 2 \times \text{R2}
\]
\[
\text{R3} = \begin{pmatrix} 0 & -22 & 4 & | & -30 \end{pmatrix} - 2 \times \begin{pmatrix} 0 & -11 & 14 & | & 3 \end{pmatrix}
\]
\[
\text{R3} = \begin{pmatrix} 0 & 0 & -24 & | & -36 \end{pmatrix}
\]

### Upper Triangular Matrix

Now, the matrix is in upper triangular form:
\[
\begin{pmatrix}
3 & 4 & 5 & | & 18 \\
0 & -11 & 14 & | & 3 \\
0 & 0 & -24 & | & -36
\end{pmatrix}
\]

### Step 4: Back Substitution

1. From R3: \(-24z = -36 \Rightarrow z = \frac{-36}{-24} = \frac{3}{2}\)
2. From R2: \(-11y + 14\left(\frac{3}{2}\right) = 3 \Rightarrow -11y + 21 = 3 \Rightarrow -11y = -18 \Rightarrow y = \frac{18}{11}\)
3. From R1: \(3x + 4\left(\frac{18}{11}\right) + 5\left(\frac{3}{2}\right) = 18 \Rightarrow 3x + \frac{72}{11} + \frac{15}{2} = 18\)

Solve for \(x\) using the above equation. 

Let me calculate these values for \(x\).The value of \(x\) is:

\[
x = \frac{29}{22}
\]

### Final Solution:
- \(x = \frac{29}{22}\)
- \(y = \frac{18}{11}\)
- \(z = \frac{3}{2}\)

These values satisfy the original system of equations.
