Math Problem Statement
System 1: kx + y + z = 4 − k x + k y + z = 3 x + y + k z = 2 + k solve using gauss ellimination
Solution
Let's solve the system of equations using Gaussian Elimination. The system is:
Step 1: Write the augmented matrix
The system of equations can be represented in augmented matrix form as:
k & 1 & 1 & | & 4 - k \\ 1 & k & 1 & | & 3 \\ 1 & 1 & k & | & 2 + k \end{bmatrix}$$ ### Step 2: Perform row operations to get the matrix into row echelon form We will proceed with the Gaussian elimination steps: #### **Row 1:** $$R_1 \quad \text{(no change)}$$ #### **Row 2: Eliminate the $$x$$-term in Row 2:** To eliminate the $$x$$-term in the second row, perform the operation: $$R_2 \to R_2 - \frac{1}{k} R_1$$ This will give us the new second row. #### **Row 3: Eliminate the $$x$$-term in Row 3:** To eliminate the $$x$$-term in the third row, perform the operation: $$R_3 \to R_3 - \frac{1}{k} R_1$$ This will give us the new third row. Now, we will continue solving this system using the Gaussian elimination method.
