Exercise 1: Consider the matrices 𝐴 = (1 1 0), 𝐵 = (3) and 𝑋 = (𝑦).
2 1 3 8 𝑧

1. Find 𝐴−1 if it exists.


2. Using question 1, solve in ℝ the linear system 𝐴𝑋 = 𝐵.

Exercise 2: Prove that the system (𝑆) admits a unique solution and solve it in ℝ using Cramer’s rule:

−2𝑎 + 3𝑏 − 𝑐 = 1
(𝑆): { 𝑎 + 2𝑏 − 𝑐 = 4
−2𝑎 − 𝑏 + 𝑐 = −3

Exercise 3: Let 𝑎, 𝑏, 𝑐 ∈ ℝ. Solve in ℝ the following linear systems using Gauss Elimination Method:

2𝑥1 + 2𝑥2 + 3𝑥3 = 𝑎 𝑥1 + 𝑥2 + 𝑥3 = 2


(𝑆1 ): { 3𝑥1 − 𝑥2 + 5𝑥3 = 𝑏 (𝑆2 ): {2𝑥1 + 3𝑥2 + 2𝑥3 = 5
𝑥1 − 3𝑥2 + 2𝑥3 = 𝑐 2𝑥1 + 3𝑥2 + (𝑎2 − 1)𝑥3 = 𝑎 + 1

𝑥1 + 𝑥2 − 𝑥3 = 2 𝑥1 − 𝑥2 + 𝑥3 = 0
(𝑆3 ): { 1 + 2𝑥2 + 𝑥3 = 3
𝑥 (𝑆4 ): { 𝑥1 − 𝑥2 + 𝑎𝑥3 = 0
𝑥1 + 𝑥2 + (𝑎2 − 5)𝑥3 = 𝑎 𝑎𝑥1 − 2𝑎𝑥2 + (1 + 𝑎)𝑥3 = 0

Homework:
𝑥1 + 𝑥2 + 𝑥3 = 0 𝑥1 + 𝑥2 + 𝑥3 = 1
(𝑆5 ): {𝑥1 + 𝑎𝑥2 − 𝑥3 = 0 (𝑆6 ): { 2𝑥1 + 3𝑥2 + 4𝑥3 = −1
2𝑥1 + 𝑥2 + 𝑥3 = 0 𝑥1 + 2𝑥2 + (𝑎2 − 2𝑎 + 3)𝑥3 = 𝑎
