To Calculate: The solution of the given system of equations using Cramer’s rule
Answer to Problem 9E
The given system of equations has no solution or infinitely many solutions.
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The given system of equations is
Concept and Formula Used:
We use Cramer’s rule.
Cramer’s rule: If a system of n linear equations in n variables has a coefficient matrix A with a non-zero determinant
where ith column of
Calculation:
The given system of equations is
So, the coefficient matrix is
As the determinant is zero, so the given system of equations has either no solution or infinitely many solutions.
Conclusion:
The given system of equations has no solution or infinitely many solutions.
