Exercise 4.4 (p. 34, 1.13). Solve the following system of equations for z and y (which is not a linear system of equations in x, y). $x^2 + xy - y^2 = 1$ $2x^2 - xy + 3y^2 = 13$ $x^2 + 3xy + 2y^2 = 0$ [Hint: These equations are linear in the new variables $x_1 = x^2$, $x_2 = xy$, and $x_3 = y^2$.]

Consider the following linear system: x + y + z = 3 (S) 2x + 3y + 4z = 11 4x + 9y + 16z = 41 The augmented matrix corresponding to (S) is: [1 1 1 | 3] [2 3 4 | 11] [4 9 16 | 41] With reference to Exercise and by using the Gaussian elimination method, the solution of (S) is: x = 2 + 2t y = 2 - t z = t
