In Exercises 1–4 the given matrix represents an augmented matrix for a linear system. Write the corresponding set of linear equations for the system, and use Gaussian elimination to solve the linear system. Introduce free parameters as necessary.
The solution of the system corresponding to the augmented matrix
Answer to Problem 1SE
The solution of the system corresponding to the augmented matrix
Explanation of Solution
The given augmented matrix is
Reduce the matrix
Multiply the first row by
Add
Multiply the second row of the matrix by
The above matrix is in row echelon form.
The corresponding linear system of the row echelon matrix is,
Here
Now assign arbitrary values s, t (called parameter) to
Obtain the value of
Therefore, the solution of the corresponding to the augmented matrix

- Consider the following elevation function for a region of irregular terrain: z(x, y) = 1 x² + y² 25 Here, z is the elevation of the terrain over a point (x, y) with x and y being the horizontal coordinates. The region of interest lies between x = 0 and x = 5, and y 0 and y = 5. Your tasks are the following: = 1. Analyze how the elevation changes with respect to x and y. To find the elevation changes, calculate the partial derivatives of the elevation function z with respect to x and 2. Calculate the total volume of soil above the 0-level (z region of interest. = y. 0). To do so, integrate z(x, y) over the wholearrow_forwardA truck loaded with rocks weighs 14,260 lb.
