Write as a Vector Equality x+y+z=5 , -2x-3y+2z=8 , 3x-y-2z=3
Problem
Solution
Identify the variables
x y andz as the scalars that multiply the column vectors formed by the coefficients of each variable across the three equations.Extract the coefficients for each variable to form the column vectors: the coefficients for
x are1 , -2, 3;ƒ*o*r a*r*e , -3, -1;a*n*d(ƒ)*o*r a*r*e , 2, -2$.Form the constant vector using the values on the right side of the equations:
5 , 8, 3$.Combine these into a single vector equation where the sum of the scaled column vectors equals the constant vector.
