7.1 Solving Systems of Two Equations (568)

The solution to a system of linear equations is the ordered pair (x, y) where the lines intersect! A solution can be substituted into both equations to make true statements.

Consistent – solution(s) Inconsistent – Ø

Dependent (∞) Independent (1 or Ø)

1. Solve an equation for one of the variables (if necessary).

2. Substitute the expression for the variable and solve.

3. Substitute into either equation to get the other value.

y = 2x + 31. Not necessary.

3x + 2y = -12.3x + 2(2x + 3) = -1

3x + 4x + 6 = -1

7x + 6 = -1,7x = -7, x = -1

3.y = 2(-1) + 3 = -2 + 3 = 1Ans: (-1, 1)

Ex.1Solve using substitution:

a)3x + 2y = 14b)-3x + y = 7

x – 2y = 10-6x + 2y = -8


You do not have to

substitute for a single variable (you can use an expression).

Graphing

Linear Combination

or Elimination

Ex.2Solving nonlinear systems:

a)y = x2 – 1b)x + y = 6

x2 + y2 = 13

Ex.3Graph and determine the point of intersection.:

a)3x + y = 4b)3x + 2y = 6

x – 2y = 6y = ln(x – 1)

1.Arrange like terms in columns (if necessary).

2.Multiply so that one set of variables are opposites.

3.Add and then solve.

4.Substitute into either equation to get the other value.

y = 2x + 31. -2x both sides-2x + y = 3

3x + 2y = -13x + 2y = -1

2.Eliminate y if we multiply eq.#1 by -2

-2(-2x + y = 3) = 4x – 2y = -6

3x + 2y = -1

3. 7x = -7

x = -1

4.y = 2(-1) + 3 =

-2 + 3 = 1 Ans: (-1, 1)

Ex.4Solve using elimination:

a)Find the product of the x & y coordinates of the

solution: 3x – 2y = 4

2x + 5y = -2

b)2x – 4y = 8

x – 2y = 4

Determine the number of gallons of water that must be

added to bring the mixture to 75% water.

Ex.6A car radiator contains 10 quarts of a 30% antifreeze

solution. How many quarts will have to be replaced

with pure antifreeze if the resulting solution is to be

50% antifreeze?

Summary:

Ex.7A machine takes 3 minutes to form a bowl and 2

minutes to form a plate. The material costs $0.25 for

a bowl and $0.20 for a plate.How many bowls and

plates were made if the machine ran for 8 hours and

$44 was spent on materials?

Ex.8A company determines its supply and demand

equations for a product to be:S: p = x2 + 4x + 40

D: p = 50 – 3x

Find the equilibrium point in terms of x (thousands of

the item) and p (the price). What does it mean?

What relationship does the company want to have

between the supply and the demand?

7.2 Matrix Algebra Day 2 (584-589)

A matrix that has a nonzero determinant is called a

nonsingular matrix (which means it has an inverse).

The minor (short for minor determinant) of an element of an

nth order determinant can be found by deleting the row

and column containing the element.

A = The minor of a11 is .

The cofactor of an element is (-1)i+j Mij. So the cofactor of

a11 is (-1)1+1(-12 – 10) = (-1)2(-22) = 1(-22) = -22.

Another way to deal with the signs

is to follow the pattern that a11 is +

and adjacent elements (horizontal

& vertical) are the opposite sign.

To evaluate a determinant of the nth order, multiple the elements of a row or column by their corresponding cofactors:

-2(+) + 0(-) + (-6)(+)=

Ex.1Find the value of:

a)b)det

Lattice method:

Ex.2Find the inverse of a 2 × 2:

A =

Adjoin the identity and perform row

opsto get the identity on the left:

If you get the 0s first you will have less fractions to

deal with.

Row operations are basically linear combinations.

Ex.4Use Cramer’s Rule to solve:5x – 3y = 4

2x + 4y = 1

Ex.5Use Cramer’s Rule to solve for z:

a) x – 2y – z = 4b) x – y + z = 8

4x + y + z = 72x + 3y – z = -2

x + 3y – 4z = -13x – 2y – 9z = 9

7.3Multivariate Linear Systems & Row Operations (594)

Triangular Form (leading coefficients = 1):

Ex.1Use back substitution: 1x – 2y – 2z = 7

1y – 2z = -7

1z = 3

Gaussian Elimination:

Interchange rows or use

elimination to change rows.

Ex.22x + y – z = 0

x – y + 2z = -3

-x + 2y – 3z = 7

x – y + z = 8

2x + 3y – z = -2

3x – 2y – 9z = 9

Row Echelon Form (REF):

Ex.33x – 6y + 3z = 7

2x + y + 4z = 2

x – 2y + z = 4

A is called the

coefficient matrix.

Gauss-Jordan Elimination (Reduced REF):

Ex.43x + 2y + z = 5Ex.52x + y – z = 1

x – y + z = 43x + 3y + 2z = 4

x + 3y – 2z = -3x – y – z = 0
