Answer

Finally, subtract the second row from the first row: [100(327/23)(75(27/23))  01075(27/23)  00127/23]

Steps

Step 1 :Let's represent these equations as an augmented matrix: [3211  2131  1113]

Step 2 :Next, we will perform row operations to get this matrix in row-echelon form. First, we will swap the first and the third row: [1113  2131  3211]

Step 3 :Next, we will subtract twice the first row from the second row and thrice the first row from the third row: [1113  0157  0528]

Step 4 :Next, multiply the second row by -1 and add 5 times the second row to the third row: [1113  0157  002327]

Step 5 :Next, multiply the third row by -1/23: [1113  0157  00127/23]

Step 6 :Next, subtract the third row from the first row and 5 times the third row from the second row: [110327/23  01075(27/23)  00127/23]

Step 7 :Finally, subtract the second row from the first row: [100(327/23)(75(27/23))  01075(27/23)  00127/23]
