Linear Algebra

Please help me with this as I would greatly appreciate it. 

I'm really stuck and confused about how to do this. Please. Thanks in advance.

### Problem Set: Circle Equations and Linear Algebra Techniques

#### Problem 1:
**Task:** Use linear algebra techniques to find the center and the radius of the circle given by the equation \(a(x^2 + y^2) + bx + cy + d = 0\) passing through the three given points \((1, 0)\), \((-1, 2)\), and \((3, 1)\).

**Steps:**
1. **Substitute the given points into the circle equation:** 
   - For \((1, 0)\):
     \[
     a(1^2 + 0^2) + b(1) + c(0) + d = 0 
     \]
     Simplifies to: \[ a + b + d = 0 \]
   
   - For \((-1, 2)\):
     \[
     a((-1)^2 + 2^2) + b(-1) + c(2) + d = 0
     \]
     Simplifies to: \[ 5a - b + 2c + d = 0 \]
   
   - For \((3, 1)\):
     \[
     a(3^2 + 1^2) + b(3) + c(1) + d = 0
     \]
     Simplifies to: \[ 10a + 3b + c + d = 0 \]

2. **Set up the system of linear equations:**
   \[
   \begin{cases}
   a + b + d = 0 \\
   5a - b + 2c + d = 0 \\
   10a + 3b + c + d = 0 
   \end{cases}
   \]

3. **Use techniques of linear algebra (e.g., matrix operations, Gaussian elimination) to solve for \(a\), \(b\), \(c\), and \(d\).**

4. **Identify the center \((h, k)\) and radius \(r\) of the circle from the standard form of the circle equation.**

**Sketch:** Draw the coordinate plane, plot the points \((1, 0)\), \((-1, 2)\), and \((3, 1)\), and sketch the circle passing through these points.
