  1. 7.3 Solution of Linear Systems by Row Transformations • Matrices and Technology • Matrix methods suitable for calculator and computer solutions of large systems • Matrix Row Transformations • Streamlined use of echelon methods

  2. 7.3 Solution of Linear Systems by Row Transformations • This is called an augmented matrix where each member of the array is called an element or entry. • The rows of an augmented matrix can be treated just like the equations of a linear system.

  3. 7.3 Matrix Transformations • For any augmented matrix of a system of linear • equations, the following row transformations will • result in the matrix of an equivalent system. • Any two rows may be interchanged. • The elements of any row may be multiplied by a nonzero real number. • Any row may be changed by adding to its elements a multiple of the corresponding elements of another row.

  4. 7.3 Solving a System by the Row Echelon Method Example Solve the system. Analytic Solution The augmented matrix for the system is

  5. 7.3 Solving a System by the Row Echelon Method The matrix represents the system The solution to this system using back-substitution is {(1, –2)}.

  6. 7.3 Solving a System by the Row Echelon Method Graphing Calculator Solution Enter the augmented matrix of the system. Using the ref command on the TI-83, we can find the row echelon form of the matrix.

  7. 7.3 Solving a System by the Row Echelon Method The left screen displays decimal entries, but can be converted to fractions as indicated in the right screen. This corresponds to the augmented matrix in the analytic solution. The rest of the solution process is the same.

  8. 7.3 Extending the Row Echelon Method to Larger Systems Example Solve the system. The augmented matrix of the system is

  9. 7.3 Extending the Row Echelon Method to Larger Systems There is already a 1 in row 1, column 1. Next, get 0s in the rest of column 1.
