How do I calculate the solution of a linear system of equations, for example



x+2y-3z=1
3x-2y+z=1
x+y+z=3
First create the matrix of coefficients
  1. Enter [Matrx] "Edit"
  2. Select the matrix "1:[A]", or another matrix.
  3. Enter the dimension of the matrix, in this case 3x3
  4. Enter in the coefficients:
    1. 1 [Enter]
    2. 2 [Enter]
    3. (-)3 [Enter]
    4. 3 [Enter]
    5. (-)2 [Enter]
    6. 1 [Enter]
    7. 1 [Enter]
    8. 1 [Enter]
    9. 1 [Enter]
  5. Create the right-hand side matrix (vector) "b"
  6. [Matrx] "Edit"
  7. Select matrix "2:" [B]
  8. Enter in the dimensions, in this case 3x1
  9. Enter in the coefficients:
    1. 1 [Enter]
    2. 1 [Enter]
    3. 3 [Enter]
  10. Get back to home screen [2nd] [Quit]
  11. Find solution by [A]-1[B]
    1. [Matrx] "Names" "[A]"
    2. [x-1]
    3. [Matrx] "Names" "[B]"
    4. [Enter]
Note: If the matrix does not have an invers, the preferred method is to reduce it to row-reduced echelon form ("rref")
  1. Enter in Augmented Matrix
  2. [Matrx] "Edit" "[C]"
  3. Enter in dimensions, 4x3
    1. 1 [Enter]
    2. 2 [Enter]
    3. (-)3 [Enter]
    4. 1 [Enter]
    5. 3 [Enter]
    6. (-)2 [Enter]
    7. 1 [Enter]
    8. 1 [Enter]
    9. 1 [Enter]
    10. 1 [Enter]
    11. 1 [Enter]
    12. 3 [Enter]
  4. Get back to home screen [2nd] [Quit]
  5. Find rref form of augmented matrix, by [Matrx] "Math" "rref" [Matrix] "Names" "[C]"
