We're going to set the following problem up as a matrix.
00:04
Just be careful with the last equation.
00:06
There's only two of the three variables listed.
00:08
So make sure you remember that you technically have a 0 -z there that you're going to have to add into your matrix.
00:17
So what we have for our matrix is 1 -9 -3 -1, with an answer of 1, 2 -1 -1 -4 -0, 1 -9 -3 -0, 1 -9 -3 -3 -3.
00:30
2 -1, 1 -2 -0 -05.
00:36
Alright, so now we can go about solving our matrix.
00:40
And i'm going to do a bunch of steps combined here, just to kind of make our life, well, make it a little bit of a shorter process.
00:47
So i'm going to take row two, and i'm going to subtract two row ones from that.
00:53
I'm going to take row three and subtract a row one.
00:56
I'm going to take a row four and subtract a row one.
00:59
Pretty much all i'm doing is i'm taking that first row which has a one in the left position and i'm getting rid of all of the numbers underneath it.
01:08
So my first row is not changing, just the rest of my rows are.
01:15
So first step, double that row subtract it from the other one.
01:19
So 2 minus 2 is 0.
01:21
Negative 1 minus a negative 6 is a positive 5.
01:26
Negative 4 minus 2 is negative 6.
01:29
1 minus 2 is negative 2.
01:32
So row 2 is negative 2.
01:33
So row 2, is done.
01:35
Then we're going to do that subtracting from row 3.
01:38
So 1 minus 1 is 0.
01:41
Negative 3 minus a negative 3 is 0.
01:46
2 minus 1 is 1.
01:48
1 minus 1 is 0.
01:52
And then from our last row 1 minus 1 is 0.
01:55
0, negative 2 minus a negative 3 is 1, 0 minus 1 is negative 1, and 5 minus 1 is 4...
