  1. Ren writes the system x + 2y − z = 4, 3x − y = 5, and 2y + z = 1 as AX = B. Which matrix equation is it?

    • [1, 2, -1; 3, -1, 0; 0, 2, 1][4; 5; 1] = [x; y; z]
    • [1, 2, -1; 3, -1, 0; 0, 2, 1][x; y; z] = [4; 5; 1]

    Start

    [1, 2, -1 | 7; 2, 5, 1 | 24; 1, 5, 9 | 39]. Row steps: row 2 − 2 × row 1, then row 3 − row 1, then row 3 − 3 × row 2.

  11. Tala row-reduces the system in the figure to the last table [1, 2, -1 | 7; 0, 1, 3 | 10; 0, 0, 1 | 2]. What is y?
