For the set of equations x1 + 2x2 + x3 + 4x4 = 2 3x1 + 6x2 + 3x3 + 12x4 = 6
Multiple non-trivial solutions exists
The second equation is exactly three times the first, including its right-hand side. There is one independent constraint on four unknowns. Solutions are(2−2s−t−4u,s,t,u), for arbitrary s,t,u. Thus infinitely many nonzero solutions exist; zero is not a solution.
Let $A=\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 1 & 1 \\ -1 & -1 & -1 \\ 0 & 1 & -1 \end{bmatrix}$ and $b = \begin{bmatrix} 1/3 \\ -1/3 \\ 0 \end{bmatrix}$, then the system of linear equations $Ax = b$ has
The nine numbers x1, x2, x3 ... x9, are in ascending order. Their average m is strictly greater than all the first eight numbers. Which of the following is true?
For what value of k, the system linear equation has no solution
(3k + 1)x + 3y - 2 = 0
(k2 + 1)x + (k - 2)y - 5 = 0
A system of equations is said to be inconsistent if
