For what values of k, the system of linear equations
x + y + z = 2
2x + y - z = 3
3x + 2y + kz = 4
has a unique solution?
Use Properties of determinants, prove that:
Consider the determinant
Taking abc common outside, we have
Applying the transformation,
Apply the transformations,
Expanding along , we have
Use product to solve the system of equations x + 3z = 9,
–x + 2y – 2z = 4, 2x – 3y + 4z = –3
