Problem

Solve the system. If there is no solution or if there are infinitely many solutions and the systern's equations are dependent, so state.
\[
\begin{array}{rr}
6 x-y+3 z= & 9 \\
x+3 y-z= & -5 \\
3 x+3 y-4 z= & 5
\end{array}
\]

Final Answer: \(\boxed{\{(2, -3, -2)\}}\)

Steps

Step 1 :Represent the system of equations in matrix form.

Step 2 :Use Gaussian elimination to reduce the system to its row echelon form.

Step 3 :If the system has a unique solution, the row echelon form will have a leading 1 in each row. If the system has no solution or infinite solutions, the row echelon form will have a row of zeros.

Step 4 :The matrix representation of the system is: \[ A = \begin{bmatrix} 6 & -1 & 3 \\ 1 & 3 & -1 \\ 3 & 3 & -4 \end{bmatrix}, b = \begin{bmatrix} 9 \\ -5 \\ 5 \end{bmatrix} \]

Step 5 :Solving the system gives the solution: \[ x = \begin{bmatrix} 2 \\ -3 \\ -2 \end{bmatrix} \]

Step 6 :Therefore, the system has a unique solution and it is (2, -3, -2).

Step 7 :Final Answer: \(\boxed{\{(2, -3, -2)\}}\)
