Write the matrix equation as a system of equations and solve the system.
■(1&2&3@1&1&1@-1&1&2) {█(x@y@z)┤ = {█(1@12@2)┤
The system is:
x + 2y + 3z = 1 --- (1)
x + y + z = 12 --- (2)
-x + y + 2z = 2 --- (3)
Adding (2) and (3) we get 2y + 3z = 14 --- (4)
Subtracting (2) from (1) we get y + 2z = -11 --- (5)
(4) - 2 * (5) 3z - 4z = 14 - 2(-11)
-z = 36
z = -36
From (5) y = -11 - 2z = -11 - 2(-36) = 61
From (2) x = 12 - y - z = 12 - 61 + 36 = -13
The solution is x = -13, y = 61, z = -36
Find the determinant of the given matrix.
