Answer:
Remember, a homogeneous system always is consistent. Then we can reason with the rank of the matrix.
If the system Ax=0 has only the trivial solution that's mean that the echelon form of A hasn't free variables, therefore each column of the matrix has a pivot.
Since each column has a pivot then we can form the reduced echelon form of the A, and leave each pivot as 1 and the others components of the column will be zero. This means that the reduced echelon form of A is the identity matrix and so on A is row equivalent to identity matrix.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
8x²-x-8
Let us solve this system of equations by using the elimination method. Adding the 2 equations, we get
9x + 5y - 9x + 4y = -33 + 6
9y = -27
y = -3
Substituting this value of y in the first equation, we get
-9x + 4(-3) = 6
-9x - 12 = 6
9x + 12 = -6
9x = -18
x = -2
Therefore, x = -2, and y = -3. Hope this helps! If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
