1 Systems of Linear Equations 1 Solutions to All Exercises 1 Systems of Linear Equations and MatricesExercise Set 1. In Section 1 of the text, Gaussian Elimination is used to solve a linear system. This procedure utilizes three operations that when applied to a linear system resultin a new system that is equivalent to the original. Equivalent means that the linear systems have the same solutions. The three operations are:
When used judiciously these three operations allow us to reduce a linear system to a triangular linear system, which can be solved. A linear system is consistent if there isat least one solution and is inconsistent if there are no solutions. Every linear system has either a unique solution, infinitely many solutions or no solutions. For example, the triangular linear systems x 1 −x 2 +x 3 = 2 x 2 − 2 x 3 =− 1 x 3 = 2 ,x 1 − 2 x 2 +x 3 = 2 −x 2 + 2x 3 =− 3 , 2 x 1 +x 3 = 1 x 2 −x 3 = 2 0 = 4 have a unique solution, infinitely many solutions, and no solutions, respectively. In the second linear system, the variablex 3 is a free variable, and once assigned any real number the values ofx 1 andx 2 are determined. In this way the linear system has infinitely many solutions. If a linear system has the same form as the second system, but also has the additional equation 0 = 0,then the linear system will still have free variables. The third system is inconsistent since the last equation 0 = 4 is impossible. In some cases, the conditions on the right hand side of a linear system are not specified. Considerfor example, the linear system −x 1 −x 2 =a 2 x 1 + 2x 2 +x 3 =b 2 x 3 =c which is equivalent to −−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−→ −x 1 −x 2 =a x 3 =b+ 2a 0 =c− 2 b− 4 a .This linear system is consistent only for valuesa, bandcsuch thatc− 2 b− 4 a= 0. Solutions to Exercises 1 the given operations we obtain the equivalent triangular system x 1 −x 2 − 2 x 3 = 3 −x 1 + 2x 2 + 3x 3 = 1 2 x 1 − 2 x 2 − 2 x 3 =− 2 E 1 +E 2 →E 2−−−−−−−−−−→x 1 −x 2 − 2 x 3 = 3 x 2 +x 3 = 4 2 x 1 − 2 x 2 − 2 x 3 =− 2 (−2)E 1 +E 3 →E 3−−−−−−−−−−−−−−→2 Chapter 1 Systems of Linear Equations and Matrices x 1 −x 2 − 2 x 3 = 3 x 2 +x 3 = 4 2 x 3 =− 8 .Using back substitution, the linear system has the unique solution x 1 = 3, x 2 = 8, x 3 =− 4. 2 the given operations we obtain the equivalent triangular system 2 x 1 − 2 x 2 −x 3 =− 3 x 1 − 3 x 2 +x 3 =− 2 x 1 − 2 x 2 = 2 E 1 ↔E 2−−−−−−→x 1 − 3 x 2 +x 3 =− 2 2 x 1 − 2 x 2 −x 3 =− 3 x 1 − 2 x 2 = 2 (−2)E 1 +E 2 →E 2−−−−−−−−−−−−−−→x 1 − 3 x 2 +x 3 =− 2 4 x 2 − 3 x 3 = 1 x 1 − 2 x 2 = 2 (−1)E 1 +E 3 →E 3−−−−−−−−−−−−−−→x 1 − 3 x 2 +x 3 =− 2 4 x 2 − 3 x 3 = 1 x 2 −x 3 = 4 E 2 ↔E 3−−−−−−→x 1 − 3 x 2 +x 3 =− 2 x 2 −x 3 = 4 4 x 2 − 3 x 3 = 1 (−4)E 2 +E 3 →E 3−−−−−−−−−−−−−−→x 1 − 3 x 2 +x 3 =− 2 x 2 −x 3 = 4 x 3 =− 15 .Using back substitution, the linear system has the unique solutionx 1 =− 20 , x 2 =− 11 , x 3 =− 15. 3 the given operations we obtain the equivalent triangular system x 1 + 3x 4 = 2 x 1 +x 2 + 4x 4 = 3 2 x 1 +x 3 + 8x 4 = 3 x 1 +x 2 +x 3 + 6x 4 = 2 (−1)E 1 +E 2 →E 2−−−−−−−−−−−−−−→x 1 + 3x 4 = 2 x 2 +x 4 = 1 2 x 1 +x 3 + 8x 4 = 3 x 1 +x 2 +x 3 + 6x 4 = 2 (−2)E 1 +E 3 →E 3−−−−−−−−−−−−−−→x 1 + 3x 4 = 2 x 2 +x 4 = 1 +x 3 + 2x 4 =− 1 x 1 +x 2 +x 3 + 6x 4 = 2 (−1)E 1 +E 4 →E 4−−−−−−−−−−−−−−→x 1 + 3x 4 = 2 x 2 +x 4 = 1 +x 3 + 2x 4 =− 1 x 2 +x 3 + 3x 4 = 0 (−1)E 2 +E 4 →E 4−−−−−−−−−−−−−−→x 1 + 3x 4 = 2 x 2 +x 4 = 1 x 3 + 2x 4 =− 1 x 3 + 2x 4 =− 1 (−1)E 3 +E 4 →E 4−−−−−−−−−−−−−−→x 1 + 3x 4 = 2 x 2 +x 4 = 1 x 3 + 2x 4 =− 1 0 = 0 .The final triangular linear system has more variables than equations, that is, there is a free variable. As a result there are infinitely many solutions. Specifically, using back substitution, the solutions are given by x 1 = 2− 3 x 4 , x 2 = 1−x 4 , x 3 =− 1 − 2 x 4 , x 4 ∈R. 4 the given operations we obtain the equivalent triangular system x 1 +x 3 =− 2 x 1 +x 2 + 4x 3 =− 1 2 x 1 + 2x 3 +x 4 =− 1 (−1)E 1 +E 2 →E 2−−−−−−−−−−−−−−→x 1 +x 3 =− 2 x 2 + 3x 3 = 1 2 x 1 + 2x 3 +x 4 =− 1 (−2)E 1 +E 3 →E 3−−−−−−−−−−−−−−→4 Chapter 1 Systems of Linear Equations and Matrices {− 2 x 1 +x 2 = 2 3 x 1 −x 2 + 2x 3 = 1 reduces to−−−−−−−→ {− 2 x 1 +x 2 = 2 x 2 + 4x 3 = 8 .There are infinitely many solutions with solution setS={(− 2 t+ 3,− 4 t+ 8, t)| t∈R}. 17 operation 2E 1 +E 2 →E 2 gives the equation− 3 x 2 − 3 x 3 − 4 x 4 =− 9 .Hence, the linear system has two free variables,x 3 andx 4 .The two parameter set of solutions isS= {(3 − 53 t,−s− 43 t+ 3, s, t )∣∣ s, t∈R }.18 linear system is in reduced form.

The linear system has a unique solution ifk 6 = 1 andk 6 =− 2 .b. Ifk=− 2 ,the solution set is a one parameter family.c= 1,the solution set is a two parameter family. Exercise Set 1. Matrices are used to provide an alternative way to representa linear system. Reducing a linear system to triangular form is then equivalent to row reducing the augmented matrix corresponding to the linear system to a triangular matrix. For example, the augmented matrix for the linear system −x 1 −x 2 −x 3 − 2 x 4 = 1 2 x 1 + 2x 2 +x 3 − 2 x 4 = 2 x 1 − 2 x 2 +x 3 + 2x 4 =− 2 is − 1 − 1 − 1 − 2 12 2 1 − 2 21 −2 1 2 − 2.The coefficient matrix is the 3×4 matrix consisting of the coefficients of each variable, thatis, the augmented matrix with the augmented column 12− 2deleted. The first four columns of the augmented matrix cor- respond to the variablesx 1 , x 2 , x 4 ,andx 4 ,respectively and the augmented column to the constants on the right of each equation. Reducing the linear system using thethree valid operations is equivalent to reducing the augmented matrix to a triangular matrix using the row operations:
In the above example, the augmented matrix can be reduced to either -1 − 1 − 1 − 2 10 -3 0 0 − 10 0 -1 − 6 4 or 1 0 0 − 4 8 / 30 1 0 0 1 / 30 0 1 6 − 4The left matrix is in row echelon form and the right is in reduced row echelon form. The framed terms are the pivots of the matrix. The pivot entries correspond todependent variables and the non-pivot entries correspond to free variables. In this example, the free variable isx 4 andx 1 , x 2 ,andx 3 depend onx 4 .So the linear system has infinitely many solutions given byx 1 = 83 + 4x 4 , x 2 = 13 , x 3 =− 4 − 6 x 4 ,andx 4 is an 8 Chapter 1 Systems of Linear Equations and Matrices arbitrary real number. For a linear system with the same number of equations as variables, there will be a unique solution if and only if the coefficient matrix can be rowreduced to the matrix with each diagonal entry 1 and all others 0.

[1 00 1],[1 00 0],[1 10 0],[0 10 0].Exercise Set 1. Addition and scalar multiplication are defined componentwise allowing algebra to be performed on ex- pressions involving matrices. Many of the properties enjoyed by the real numbers also hold for matrices. For example, addition is commutative and associative, the matrix of all zeros plays the same role as 0 in the real numbers since the zero matrix added to any matrixAisA each component of a matrixAis negated, denoted by−A,thenA+ (−A) is the zero matrix. Matrix multiplication is also defined. The matrixAB that is the product ofAwithB,is obtained by taking the dot product of each row vector ofAwith each column vector ofB order of multiplication is important since it is not always the case thatABandBA are the same matrix. When simplifying expressions with matrices, care is then needed and the multiplication of matrices can be reversed only when it is assumed or known that the matrices commute. The distributive property does hold for matrices, so thatA(B+C) =AB+AC this case however, it is also necessary to note that (B+C)A=BA+CAagain since matrix multiplication is not commutative. The transpose of a matrixA,denoted byAt,is obtained by interchanging the rows and columns of a matrix. There are important properties of the transpose operation you shouldalso be familiar with before solving the exercises. Of particular importance is (AB)t=BtAt properties are (A+B)t=At+Bt,(cA)t=cAt,and (At)t=A class of matrices that is introduced in Section 1 and considered throughout the text are the symmetric matrices. A matrixAis symmetric it is equal to its transpose, that is,At=A example, in the case of 2×2 matrices, A= [a b c d ]=At= [a c b d ]⇔b=c. 1 Matrix Algebra 13 14.(A+B)C=[0 − 31 0][2 0− 1 − 1]=[3 32 0]15. 2 A(B− 3 C) =[10 − 18− 24 0]16.(A+ 2B)(3C) =[21 9−6 0]
