Question
![**Problem 3:**
Find the solution set for each system by putting it in row-echelon form.
a)
\[
\begin{align*}
x + y + z &= 6 \\
2y + 5z &= -4 \\
2x + 5y - z &= 27 \\
\end{align*}
\]
b)
\[
\begin{align*}
3x_1 - 4x_2 + 4x_3 &= 7 \\
x_1 - x_2 - 2x_3 &= 2 \\
2x_1 - 3x_2 + 6x_3 &= 5 \\
\end{align*}
\]
c)
\[
\begin{align*}
2x_1 - x_2 + x_3 + x_4 &= 1 \\
x_1 + 2x_2 - x_3 + x_4 &= 7 \\
\end{align*}
\]
d)
\[
\begin{align*}
-3x + 6y &= 5 \\
x + 2y &= 6 \\
\end{align*}
\]
**Instructions:**
For each sub-problem, convert the given system of equations into row-echelon form to find the solution set. Row-echelon form typically involves manipulating the system of equations such that each successive row has more leading zeros than the previous one. The process usually involves a combination of scaling rows, swapping rows, and adding/subtracting multiples of rows from each other.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Ffd35cf2d-d59c-46d2-9acb-f7bd2544420e%2Fa4637bc2-efcc-4ce6-9696-56ed5b60074e%2Fdwnv775_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
