However, the advantage of writing the equationsin slope-intercept form is that we can compare the slopes and y-intercepts of each line.1. If the slopes differ, the lines are different and nonparallel and must cross in exactlyone point.2. If the slopes are the same and the y-intercepts are different, the lines are paralleland do not intersect.3. If the slopes are the same and the y-intercepts are the same, the two equations rep-resent the same line.example3 Solving a System of Equations by GraphingSolvethesystembygraphing.Solution:Tographtheline, writeeachequationinslope-interceptform.Becausethelineshavethesameslopebutdifferenty-intercepts, theyareparallel(Figure3-3).

Amatrix with the same number of rows and columns is called a square matrix.d. This matrix has one row and three columns. Therefore, it is a 1 3 matrix.A matrix with one row is called a row matrix.A matrix can be used to represent a system of linear equations written in stan-dard form.

Multiply row3 by 2 and addthe result to row 2.The Gauss-Jordan method uses a series of elementary row operations performedon the augmented matrix to produce a simpler augmented matrix. In particular, wewant to produce an augmented matrix that has 1s along the diagonal of the matrixof coefficients and 0s for the remaining entries in the matrix of coefficients. A matrixwritten in this way is said to be written in reduced row echelon form. For example,the augmented matrix shown is written in reduced row echelon form.Thesolutiontothecorrespondingsystemofequationsiseasilyrecognizedasx 4, y 1, and z 0.1 0 00 1 00 0 1410From the reduced row echelon form of the matrix, we have andThe solution to the system is (3, 2, 1). z 1.x 3, y 2,2R3 R21R22R3 R11R1See e-ProfessorSolving Systems of LinearEquations Using the Gauss-Jordan MethodmiL06198_ch03_127-17012/19/0609:40 AMPage 158 Nishant Nishant:Desktop Folder:prakash 19/12/06:CONFIRMING PAGESSection 3.6 Solving Systems of Linear Equations by Using Matrices 159The order in which we manipulate the elements of an augmented matrix to pro-duce reduced row echelon form was demonstrated in Example 4. In general, theorderisasfollows. First produce a 1 in the first row, first column. Then use the first row to obtain0s in the first column below this element. Next, if possible, produce a 1 in the second row, second column. Use thesecond row to obtain 0s above and below this element. Next, if possible, produce a 1 in the third row, third column. Use the third rowto obtain 0s above and below this element. The process continues until reduced row echelon form is obtained.It is particularly easy to recognize a dependent or inconsistent system of equationsfrom the reduced row echelon form of an augmented matrix. If the last row repre-sentsanidentity, thesystemisdependent. Ifthelastrowrepresentsacontradic-tion, the system is inconsistent.
