To find: the solution of the system.
Answer to Problem 33RE
The system has no solution
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Calculation:
Consider the system of equations
Use these together to solve the system. Change the system to triangular form by interchanging the first and third equations.
Eliminate
The work is shown as follows.
So, the equivalent system one step closer to triangular form is
Eliminate
So, the equivalent system one step closer to triangular form is
The system is now triangular form, but the third equation says
No matter what values assigned to
Hence, conclude that, the system has no solution.
Conclusion:
Therefore, the system has no solution
