Question
**Find a Non-Trivial Solution of a Matrix Equation**

**Problem Statement:**
Find a non-trivial solution of the equation \(A\mathbf{x} = \mathbf{0}\), where 

\[A = \begin{bmatrix}
-15 & -3 \\
30 & 6 \\
-10 & -2
\end{bmatrix}\]

**Options:**

- \(\begin{bmatrix} 0 \\ 0 \end{bmatrix}\)

- \(\begin{bmatrix} -5 \\ 1 \end{bmatrix}\)

- \(\begin{bmatrix} 5 \\ -1 \end{bmatrix}\)

- \(\begin{bmatrix} 1 \\ -5 \end{bmatrix}\)

- \(\begin{bmatrix} 1 \\ 5 \end{bmatrix}\)

Choose the correct non-trivial solution from the given options.

**Explanation:**
In linear algebra, a non-trivial solution to the homogeneous system \(A\mathbf{x} = \mathbf{0}\) is a solution where \(\mathbf{x} \neq \mathbf{0}\). This involves finding a vector \(\mathbf{x}\) which, when multiplied by the matrix \(A\), results in the zero vector. Non-trivial solutions occur when the determinant of \(A\) is zero, indicating that the matrix is singular and has linearly dependent rows or columns.

#### Describe the general solution in parametric vector form.

### Options:
1. 
\[ 
\begin{bmatrix} x_1 \\ x_2 \\ x_3 \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 7/2 \\ -2 \\ 1 \end{bmatrix} + x_3 \begin{bmatrix} 11 \\ 5 \\ 0 \end{bmatrix} 
\]

2. 
\[ 
\begin{bmatrix} x_1 \\ x_2 \\ x_3 \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 11 \\ 5 \\ 0 \end{bmatrix} + x_3 \begin{bmatrix} 7/2 \\ 2 \\ 1 \end{bmatrix} 
\]

3. 
\[ 
\begin{bmatrix} x_1 \\ x_2 \\ x_3 \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} -3 \\ 5 \\ 0 \end{bmatrix} + x_3 \begin{bmatrix} -17 \\ 2 \\ 1 \end{bmatrix} 
\]

4. 
\[ 
\begin{bmatrix} x_1 \\ x_2 \\ x_3 \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 11 \\ 5 \\ 0 \end{bmatrix} + x_3 \begin{bmatrix} 7/2 \\ 2 \\ 0 \end{bmatrix}
