⎣0 1 2⎦ ⎣ 2 −1 5 ⎦
system of equations:

𝑥−𝑦=3
2𝑥 + 3𝑦 + 4𝑧 = 17
𝑦 + 2𝑧 = 7

⎣ 0 −1 1 ⎦

3𝑥 + 3𝑦 + 2𝑧 = 1
𝑥 + 2𝑦 = 4
2𝑥 + 3𝑦 − 𝑧 = 5

3. Find the product of matrices

⎣ 5 −3 −1⎦ ⎣2 1 3⎦
Hence solve the system of linear equations:

𝑥−𝑦+𝑧=4
𝑥 − 2𝑦 − 2𝑧 = 9
2𝑥 + 𝑦 + 3𝑧 = 1

4. Using matrix method, solve the system of equations:

𝑥 + 2𝑦 − 3𝑧 = −4
2𝑥 + 3𝑦 + 2𝑧 = 2
3𝑥 − 3𝑦 − 4𝑧 = 11
