Question

Zane performs the elementary row operation represented by R2-½R1 on matrix A.​

Answer 1

Answer:

[2 5 0]

[-7 -11/2 12]

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to perform elementary row operation represented by R2 - ½R1 on matrix A in the figure attached.

Now, matrix A is given as;

[2 5 0]

[-6 -3 12]

Now, R1 is row 1 = [2 5 0]

R2 is row 2 = [-6 -3 12]

Thus, R2 - ½R1 = [-6 -3 12] - ½[2 5 0]

This gives;

[-6 -3 12] - [1 5/2 0] = [-7 -11/2 12]

Now,[-7 -11/2 12] will be the new row 2 since it's just an elementary row operation we did on the Matrix A.

Thus, the new matrix is now;

[2 5 0]

[-7 -11/2 12]

Answer 2

Answer:

Its actually,

−7   −11/2   12

−6    −3     12

I just took the quiz :)
