Question
Consider the following system of linear equations.
2x1 + 3x2 + 4x3 + x4 14
4x1 + 1x2 + 1x3 + 5x4 = 23
1x₁ + 2x2 + 1x3 + 6x4 = 29
A) Find all basic solutions x= (x1, x2, x3, x4)
obtained with B=[a2,a3,a4], i.e., the last
three columns of matrix A of the linear
system above. Then, FOR EACH BASIS, set
XN (the non basic variable) something other
than zero and obtain a solution which is
NOT basic.
