# Solving Systems of Equations Using Gauss-Jordan Elimination

### Problem Statement

Solve the following system of linear equations using Gauss-Jordan elimination:

1. \(2x_1 + 4x_2 - 10x_3 = 8\)
2. \(4x_1 + 26x_2 - 63x_3 = 99\)
3. \(x_1 + 5x_2 - 12x_3 = 18\)

### Solution Choices

Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer box(es) within your choice:

- **A.** The unique solution is \(x_1 = \_ \), \(x_2 = \_ \), and \(x_3 = \_ \).

- **B.** The system has infinitely many solutions. The solution is \(x_1 = \_ \), \(x_2 = \_ \), and \(x_3 = t\).  
  (_Simplify your answers. Type expressions using \(t\) as the variable._)

- **C.** The system has infinitely many solutions. The solution is \(x_1 = \_ \), \(x_2 = s\), and \(x_3 = t\).  
  (_Simplify your answer. Type an expression using \(s\) and \(t\) as the variables._)

- **D.** There is no solution.

---

### Understanding the Problem

To solve this system of equations, you will apply the Gauss-Jordan elimination method, which involves matrix row operations to transform the system into reduced row-echelon form. This allows you to clearly identify solutions, whether they are unique, infinite, or nonexistent.

Review the options and determine which identically describes the solution to the system using the outlined approach above.
