Q. Determine the values of a and b for which the system ⎩⎨⎧2x+y+az=−13x−2y+z=b5x−8y+9z=3
Write Equations: Step 1: Write down the system of equations. \{[\(2x + y + az = −1], [3x - 2y + z = b], [5x - 8y + 9z = 3]\}
Eliminate Z: Step 2: Use elimination to simplify the system. Start by eliminating z from the first two equations.Multiply the first equation by 1 and the second by a to align coefficients of z:[2x+y+az=−1][3ax−2ay+az=ab]Subtract the first from the second:(3a−2)x−(2a−1)y=ab+1
Solve Simplified System: Step 3: Now, eliminate z from the second and third equations.Multiply the second equation by 9 and the third by 1:[27x−18y+9z=9b][5x−8y+9z=3]Subtract the third from the first:(27−5)x−(18−8)y=9b−322x−10y=9b−3
