Exercise 1.3.6

Avg difficulty 3.0

Write the following system of linear equations as an augmented matrix. Caution: you first have to simplify and rearrange the equations so that “like” variables are lined up in columns. Write the variables in the order xx, yy, zz.

x−3z+2y=56−x=4+y−z2x+3=x+3y.\begin{array}{c}x-3z+2y=5\\ 6-x=4+y-z\\ 2x+3=x+3y.\end{array}
