Review Exercise Set 20

Exercise 1: Use Gaussian elimination to find the solution for the given system of equations.

3x + y - z = 1
x - y + z = -3
2x + y + z = 0

Exercise 2: Use Gaussian elimination to find the solution for the given system of equations.

2x + 5y = 9
x + 2y - z = 3
-3x - 4y + 7z = 1
Exercise 3: The circle given by the equation x2 + y2 + ax + by + c = 0 passes through the points (-2, 0),
(-1, 7), and (5, -1). Find a, b, and c.
Review Exercise Set 20 Answer Key
Exercise 1: Use Gaussian elimination to find the solution for the given system of equations.

3x + y - z = 1
x - y + z = -3
2x + y + z = 0

Setup the augmented matrix

Perform row operations to reduce the matrix


Exercise 1 (Continued):

 1 7 3
The solution set (x, y, z) is  − , , − 
 2 4 4

Exercise 2: Use Gaussian elimination to find the solution for the given system of equations.

2x + 5y = 9
x + 2y - z = 3
-3x - 4y + 7z = 1

Setup the augmented matrix

Perform row operations to reduce the matrix


Exercise 2 (Continued):

0 4 so this system is inconsistent and has no solution.

Exercise 3: The circle given by the equation x2 + y2 + ax + by + c = 0 passes through the points (-2, 0),
(-1, 7), and (5, -1). Find a, b, and c.

Substitute the given points into the equation to find the system of equations

x2 + y2 + ax + by + c = 0
(-2)2 + (0)2 + a(-2) + b(0) + c = 0
4 - 2a + c = 0
-2a + c = -4

x2 + y2 + ax + by + c = 0
(-1)2 + (7)2 + a(-1) + b(7) + c = 0
1 + 49 - a + 7b + c = 0
-a + 7b + c = -50

x2 + y2 + ax + by + c = 0
(5)2 + (-1)2 + a(5) + b(-1) + c = 0
25 + 1 + 5a - b + c = 0
5a - b + c = -26

-2a + c = -4
-a + 7b + c = -50
5a - b + c = -26

Setup the augmented matrix


Exercise 3 (Continued):

Perform row operations to reduce the matrix


Exercise 3 (Continued):

The solution set (a, b, c) is (-4, -6, -12)
