There is no solution for the first one
if you eliminate y you get 2 equations
-13x - 13z = -25
-13x - 13x = -15
- there is no solution to theses
a23 means the element in the second row and the 3rd column
so its -5
Option A
-x + 6y = 42 is the standard form
<u>Solution:</u>
Given that we have to write
in standard form
The standard form of an equation is Ax + By = C
In this kind of equation, x and y are variables and A, B, and C are integers
Given equation is:

Let us convert the above equation into standard form


Make the denominator same in R.H.S

Solve the above equation


Move 6 from R.H.S to L.H.S

Bring all the terms to one side, leaving only constant on R.H.S

The above equation is of form Ax + By = C
Thus option A is correct
Where are the sets? I don't see any...
The given equations are

TO solve for p and w, we can use elimination method. And the first step is to eliminate p by adding both equations .
So out of the given options, correct option is the first option .
